> cd321x_update_work() passes a pointer to a local stack variable
> (&st.partner_identity) to typec_register_partner(). The Type-C core
> caches this pointer, leading to a stack-use-after-free and a kernel
> Oops when accessed later (e.g., via get_pd_product_type()).

> Fix this by copying the identity to the heap-allocated cd321x struct
