In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fwctl: Fix class init ordering to avoid NULL pointer dereference on device removal
CXL is linked before fwctl in drivers/Makefile. Both use `module_init, so
`cxl_pci_driver_init()` runs first. When `cxl_pci_probe()` calls
`fwctl_register()` and then `device_add()`, fwctl_class is not yet
registered because fwctl_init() hasn't run, causing `class_to_subsys()` to
return NULL and skip knode_class initialization.
On device removal, `class_to_subsys()` returns non-NULL, and
`device_del()` calls `klist_del()` on the uninitialized knode, triggering
a NULL pointer dereference.
