CVE-2024-26738

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

powerpc/pseries/iommu: DLPAR add doesn't completely initialize pci_controller

When a PCI device is dynamically added, the kernel oopses with a NULL
pointer dereference:

  BUG: Kernel NULL pointer dereference on read at 0x00000030

Commit a940904443e4 ("powerpc/iommu: Add iommu_ops to report capabilities
and allow blocking domains") broke DLPAR add of PCI devices.

The above added iommu_device structure to pci_controller. During
system boot, PCI devices are discovered and this newly added iommu_device
structure is initialized by a call to iommu_device_register().

During DLPAR add of a PCI device, a new pci_controller structure is
allocated but there are no calls made to iommu_device_register()
interface.

Fix is to register the iommu device during DLPAR add as well.
