CVE-2026-98477

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

perf/core: Fix NULL pmu_ctx passed to pmu->sched_task()

perf_pmu_sched_task() returns early when cpuctx->task_ctx is set, and
cpc->task_epc is only non-NULL while a task context is scheduled in on
this CPU. __perf_pmu_sched_task() therefore always passes NULL:

  Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00
  pc : armv8pmu_sched_task+0x14/0x50
  Call trace:
   armv8pmu_sched_task+0x14/0x50 (P)
   perf_pmu_sched_task+0xac/0x108
   __perf_event_task_sched_out+0x6c/0xe0

Pass &cpc->epc instead, the CPU-wide context for this PMU, which the
function already dereferences a few lines up to find pmu.

armv8pmu_sched_task() is the only in-tree implementation that
dereferences the argument, and it only reads ->pmu, so the oops needs
BRBE, added in v6.17.
