Affected: Linux

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

powerpc/pseries/iommu: Don't unset window if it was never set

On pSeries, when user attempts to use the same vfio container used by different iommu group, the spapr_tce_set_window() returns -EPERM and the subsequent cleanup leads to the below crash.

Kernel attempted to read user page (308) - exploit attempt?

Fix this by having null check for the tbl passed to the spapr_tce_unset_window().
