CVE-2026-99248
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: i2c: xiic: restore non-managed runtime PM to fix clk WARN flood The devres conversion replaced manual pmruntimeenable()/disable() with devmpmruntimesetactiveenabled() and dropped the remove-time runtime PM teardown. The managed release tears runtime PM down in the wrong order: it calls pmruntimedontuseautosuspend() before pmruntimedisable(), i.e. while runtime PM is still enabled, and devres is LIFO so the devmclkgetenabled() release runs afterwards. At remove(), pmruntimeputsync() leaves the device active with the autosuspend timer armed. Clearing useautosuspend then makes rpmidle() suspend immediately, and xiici2cruntimesuspend() clkdisable()s the clock. The later devmclkgetenabled() release clkdisableunprepare()s the already-disabled clock, so clkcoredisable() WARNs ("clkN already disabled") on every teardown. Drop the managed helper and restore the non-managed runtime PM setup and teardown, so runtime PM is enabled once in probe and disabled once in remove and the clock enable count stays balanced. Order the remove teardown so runtime PM is disabled before the usage count is dropped: pmruntimedisable()…
