In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: clk: mmp2: call pm_genpd_init() only after genpd.name is set Setting the genpd's struct device's name with dev_set_name() is happening within pm_genpd_init(). If it remains NULL, things can blow up later, such as when crafting the devfs hierarchy for the power domain: Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000 when read ...
