Subject: [PATCH] power: supply: ucs1002: fix use-after-free on remove

ucs1002 has no remove callback, so unbind runs entirely through devm.
The alert IRQ handler queues the health_poll delayed work, and the work
reschedules itself while the chip reports a bad-health condition.  devm
frees the alert IRQ, which only synchronizes the handler; it does not
cancel the delayed work, which can then run after devm frees the driver
data and dereference it.

Register health_poll with devm_delayed_work_autocancel() before the
alert IRQ is requested.  devm then frees the IRQ before cancelling the
work, so the handler can no longer queue it and the work is cancelled
before the driver data is freed.

This issue was found by an in-house static analysis tool.

[PATCH 5.10.y 1/2] workqueue: Add resource managed version of delayed work init

[Sasha Levin]

From: Matti Vaittinen <matti.vaittinen@fi.rohmeurope.com>

[ Upstream commit 0341ce5443949588e93581b49b934cdde2befbf8 ]

A few drivers which need a delayed work-queue must cancel work at driver
detach. Some of those implement remove() solely for this purpose. Help
drivers to avoid unnecessary remove and error-branch implementation by
adding managed verision of delayed work initialization. This will also
help drivers to avoid mixing manual and devm based unwinding when other
resources are handled by devm.

[PATCH 5.10.y 2/2] power: supply: ucs1002: fix use-after-free on remove

[Sasha Levin]

From: Fan Wu <fanwu01@zju.edu.cn>

[ Upstream commit 609af0ceeaefdfa42cd01dd060b20f2e41f9a232 ]

ucs1002 has no remove callback, so unbind runs entirely through devm.
The alert IRQ handler queues the health_poll delayed work, and the work
reschedules itself while the chip reports a bad-health condition.  devm
frees the alert IRQ, which only synchronizes the handler; it does not
cancel the delayed work, which can then run after devm frees the driver
data and dereference it.

Register health_poll with devm_delayed_work_autocancel() before the
alert IRQ is requested.  devm then frees the IRQ before cancelling the
work, so the handler can no longer queue it and the work is cancelled
before the driver data is freed.

This issue was found by an in-house static analysis tool.
