Input subsystem guidelines require that device capabilities are advertised
before the input device is registered. The Wacom driver was violating
this by advertising the SW_MUTE_DEVICE capability post-registration in
wacom_set_shared_values() (and duplicating it in device-specific setup
cases).
Resolve this by moving the SW_MUTE_DEVICE capability setup to
wacom_setup_touch_input_capabilities() for all touch devices that support
it, excluding TabletPC devices.
Additionally, replace the lookup-dependent
'wacom_wac->shared->touch->product' references with 'hdev->product'
inside wacom_setup_touch_input_capabilities() as 'hdev' is already
available and represents the touch device itself.

wacom_intuos_pad() accesses wacom->shared->touch_input locklessly
inside the interrupt handler context. If the Touch sibling device
is disconnected, wacom_remove_shared_data() clears 'touch_input'
outside any lock, creating a Time-of-Check to Time-of-Use (TOCTOU)
race condition where a preempted reader in interrupt context
dereferences the freed pointer, leading to a Use-After-Free.
Resolve this by introducing RCU protection for the touch_input
pointer:
- Annotate 'touch_input' in wacom_shared struct with __rcu
- Wrap all lockless readers in wacom_wac.c with guard(rcu)() and
rcu_dereference() using a unified wacom_report_touch_mute()
helper
- Update writers in wacom_sys.c using rcu_assign_pointer()
- Call synchronize_rcu() in wacom_remove_shared_data() to ensure
all active RCU readers have finished before the input device is
freed
Also wrap wacom_set_shared_values() and touch/pen assignments in
wacom_add_shared_data() inside the wacom_udev_list_lock to serialize
concurrent probe assignments, and verify that 'shared->touch == hdev'
before setting touch_input to prevent concurrent sibling probe state
desynchronization.

wacom_bamboo_pad_pen_event() accesses wacom->shared->pen locklessly
relative to wacom_remove_shared_data() which nullifies it. This
can lead to a Use-After-Free if the sibling device is removed while
events are being processed.
Resolve this by introducing RCU protection for pen and touch
pointers:
- Annotate 'pen' and 'touch' in wacom_shared struct with __rcu.
- Wrap lockless readers in wacom_bamboo_pad_pen_event() with
rcu_read_lock() and rcu_dereference().
- Update writers in wacom_sys.c using rcu_assign_pointer().
- Use rcu_dereference_protected for comparisons under
wacom_udev_list_lock.
- Also use rcu_access_pointer in wacom_mode_change_work() to avoid
warnings (while lockless access there remains a pre-existing issue).

The Wacom driver coordinates state between sibling interfaces of
the same physical device using a shared structure 'wacom_shared'
inside 'wacom_hdev_data'. The driver kept a volatile representative
pointer 'data->dev' pointing to a sibling 'hid_device' for physical
path comparisons during sibling matching.
This pointer management is fragile. When the representative device
is disconnected, wacom_remove_shared_data() failed to clear/update
'data->dev', leading to a Use-After-Free vulnerability when
subsequent sibling probes dereference the dangling 'data->dev'
pointer.
Resolve this issue by redesigning the sibling data lifecycle:
- Eliminate the volatile 'data->dev' representative pointer
completely
- Redesign 'wacom_hdev_data' to store stable static copies of the
required attributes upon first allocation: 'phys' path string,
'vendor', 'product' IDs and the sibling's 'device_type'
- Use these static attributes for stable sibling matching in
wacom_are_sibling() and wacom_get_hdev_data()
This ensures sibling matching remains safe and stable even if
individual siblings are dynamically added or removed.
To secure the lifecycle against concurrent probe/disconnect races:
- Switch kref_put() to kref_put_mutex() in
wacom_remove_shared_data() to serialize refcount drops with list
traversal and lookup
- Modify wacom_release_shared_data() to assume the list lock is
already held
Also, do not accumulate the 'device_type' capability flag during
subsequent sibling probes. Keeping only the first probed sibling's
device_type exactly preserves the original sibling matching behavior
without introducing side effects.
