This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled cpufreq: davinci: Fix clk use after free to the 6.1-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: cpufreq-davinci-fix-clk-use-after-free.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.1 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 84ff7523c419189f876af01816a9aaaa35b8f1d9 Author: Uwe Kleine-König <u.kleine-koenig@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed Feb 8 10:26:54 2023 +0100 cpufreq: davinci: Fix clk use after free [ Upstream commit 5d8f384a9b4fc50f6a18405f1c08e5a87a77b5b3 ] The remove function first frees the clks and only then calls cpufreq_unregister_driver(). If one of the cpufreq callbacks is called just before cpufreq_unregister_driver() is run, the freed clks might be used.
