Title
dpll: Prevent duplicate registrations
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dpll: Prevent duplicate registrations
Modify the internal registration helpers dpll_xa_ref_{dpll,pin}_add()
to reject duplicate registration attempts.
Previously, if a caller attempted to register the same pin multiple
times (with the same ops, priv, and cookie) on the same device, the core
silently increments the reference count and return success. This behavior
is incorrect because if the caller makes these duplicate registrations
then for the first one dpll_pin_registration is allocated and for others
the associated dpll_pin_ref.refcount is incremented. During the first
unregistration the associated dpll_pin_registration is freed and for
others WARN is fired.
Fix this by updating the logic to return `-EEXIST` if a matching
registration is found to enforce a strict "register once" policy.
Severity ?
