NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-coco_debug-devel package and not the kernel-coco_debug-devel package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:15.6 relevant fixed versions and status.

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

mfd: intel_soc_pmic_bxtwc: Use IRQ domain for USB Type-C device

While design wise the idea of converting the driver to use the hierarchy of the IRQ chips is correct, the implementation has (inherited) flaws. This was unveiled when platform_get_irq() had started WARN() on IRQ 0 that is supposed to be a Linux IRQ number (also known as vIRQ).

Rework the driver to respect IRQ domain when creating each MFD device separately, as the domain is not the same for all of them.
