Subject: [PATCH] usb: typec: ucsi: Fix race condition and ordering in port
 unregistration

A synchronization issue exists during port unregistration where pending
partner work items can race against workqueue destruction, leading to
use-after-free conditions:

  cros_ec_ucsi cros_ec_ucsi.3.auto: error -ETIMEDOUT: PPM init failed
  BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000000
  RIP: 0010:__queue_work+0x83/0x4a0
  Call Trace:

    irq_exit_rcu+0x18d/0x330
    fred_sysvec_apic_timer_interrupt+0x5e/0x80

Fix this by ensuring strict ordering and proper serialization during
teardown:

1. Move ucsi_unregister_partner() to the beginning of the teardown
sequence and protect it under the connector mutex lock.
2. Ensure all pending partner tasks are explicitly flushed and finished
before the workqueue is destroyed.
3. Switch from mod_delayed_work() to a cancel_delayed_work() and
queue_delayed_work() sequence. This guarantees that items currently marked
as pending won't be scheduled an additional time, preventing a double
release of resources which leads to the following crash:

To ensure these rules are applied identically across both the normal
teardown and the ucsi_init() error paths, consolidate the cleanup logic
into a new helper, ucsi_unregister_port().

[PATCH 6.1.y 1/3] usb: typec: ucsi: Only enable supported notifications

[Sasha Levin]

From: Diogo Ivo <diogo.ivo@tecnico.ulisboa.pt>

[ Upstream commit 27ffe4ff0b33b3dcc97fd448fd1e38d31ade575b ]

The UCSI specification defines some notifications to be optional for the
PPM to support. From these only enable the ones the PPM informs us are
actually supported.

The problem is that all connector locks belong to the same
lockdep lock class, so the following loop:

	for (i = 0; i < ucsi->cap.num_connectors; i++)
		ucsi_register_port(connector[i])
			mutex_lock(&connector[i]->lock)

looks like a recursive acquire of the same mutex.  Put each connector
lock into a dedicated lock class so that lockdep doesn't see it as a
possible recursion.
