CVE-2023-52771

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

cxl/port: Fix delete_endpoint() vs parent unregistration race

The CXL subsystem, at cxl_mem ->probe() time, establishes a lineage of
ports (struct cxl_port objects) between an endpoint and the root of a
CXL topology. Each port including the endpoint port is attached to the
cxl_port driver.

Given that setup, it follows that when either any port in that lineage
goes through a cxl_port ->remove() event, or the memdev goes through a
cxl_mem ->remove() event. The hierarchy below the removed port, or the
entire hierarchy if the memdev is removed needs to come down.

The delete_endpoint() callback is careful to check whether it is being
called to tear down the hierarchy, or if it is only being called to
teardown the memdev because an ancestor port is going through
->remove().

That care needs to take the device_lock() of the endpoint's parent.
Which requires 2 bugs to be fixed:

1/ A reference on the parent is needed to prevent use-after-free
   scenarios like this signature:

2/ In the case of RCH topologies, the parent device that needs to be
   locked is not always @port->dev as returned by cxl_mem_find_port(), use
   endpoint->dev.parent instead.

CWE-362 Concurrent Execution using Shared Resource with Improper Synchronization ('Race Condition')

The product contains a concurrent code sequence that requires temporary, exclusive access to a shared resource, but a timing window exists in which the shared resource can be modified by another code sequence operating concurrently.
