Descripción
*** Pendiente de traducción *** In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
gpio: shared: fix deadlock on shared proxy&#39;s parent removal<br />
<br />
Commit 710abda58055 ("gpio: shared: call gpio_chip::of_xlate() if set")<br />
used the mutex embedded in struct gpio_shared_entry to protect the<br />
offset field which now can be modified after assignment. The critical<br />
section however is too wide and introduced a potential deadlock on the<br />
removal of the shared GPIO proxy&#39;s parent.<br />
<br />
Make the critical section shorter - only protect the offset when it&#39;s<br />
being read.<br />
<br />
While at it: mention the fact that the entry lock is now also used to<br />
protect against concurrent access to the offset field in the structure&#39;s<br />
documentation.
