## Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:  tty: serial: fsl_lpuart: disable dma rx/tx use flags in lpuart_dma_shutdown  lpuart_dma_shutdown tears down lpuart dma, but lpuart_flush_buffer can still occur which in turn tries to access dma apis if lpuart_dma_tx_use flag is true. At this point since dma is torn down, these dma apis can abort. Set lpuart_dma_tx_use and the corresponding rx flag lpuart_dma_rx_use to false in lpuart_dma_shutdown so that dmas are not accessed after they are relinquished.  Otherwise, when try to kill btattach, kernel may panic. This patch may fix this issue. root@imx8ulpevk:~# btattach -B /dev/ttyLP2 -S 115200 ^C[   90.182296] Internal error: synchronous external abort: 96000210 [#1] PREEMPT SMP [   90.189806] Modules linked in: moal(O) mlan(O) [   90.194258] CPU: 0 PID: 503 Comm: btattach Tainted: G           O      5.15.32-06136-g34eecdf2f9e4 #37 [   90.203554] Hardware name: NXP i.MX8ULP 9X9 EVK (DT) [   90.208513] pstate: 600000c5 (nZCv daIF -PAN -UAO -TCO -DIT -SSBS BTYPE=--) [   90.215470] pc : fsl_edma3_disable_request+0x8/0x60 [   90.220358] lr : fsl_edma3_terminate_all+0x34/0x20c [   90.225237] sp : ffff800013f0bac0 [   90.228548] x29: ffff800013f0bac0 x28: 0000000000000001 x27: ffff000008404800 [   90.235681] x26: ffff000008404960 x25: ffff000008404a08 x24: ffff000008404a00 [   90.242813] x23: ffff000008404a60 x22: 0000000000000002 x21: 0000000000000000 [   90.249946] x20: ffff800013f0baf8 x19: ffff00000559c800 x18: 0000000000000000 [   90.257078] x17: 0000000000000000 x16: 0000000000000000 x15: 0000000000000000 [   90.264211] x14: 0000000000000003 x13: 0000000000000000 x12: 0000000000000040 [   90.271344] x11: ffff00000600c248 x10: ffff800013f0bb10 x9 : ffff000057bcb090 [   90.278477] x8 : fffffc0000241a08 x7 : ffff00000534ee00 x6 : ffff000008404804 [   90.285609] x5 : 0000000000000000 x4 : 0000000000000000 x3 : ffff0000055b3480 [   90.292742] x2 : ffff8000135c0000 x1 : ffff00000534ee00 x0 : ffff00000559c800 [   90.299876] Call trace: [   90.302321]  fsl_edma3_disable_request+0x8/0x60 [   90.306851]  lpuart_flush_buffer+0x40/0x160 [   90.311037]  uart_flush_buffer+0x88/0x120 [   90.315050]  tty_driver_flush_buffer+0x20/0x30 [   90.319496]  hci_uart_flush+0x44/0x90 [   90.323162]  +0x34/0x12c [   90.327253]  tty_ldisc_close+0x38/0x70 [   90.331005]  tty_ldisc_release+0xa8/0x190 [   90.335018]  tty_release_struct+0x24/0x8c [   90.339022]  tty_release+0x3ec/0x4c0 [   90.342593]  __fput+0x70/0x234 [   90.345652]  ____fput+0x14/0x20 [   90.348790]  task_work_run+0x84/0x17c [   90.352455]  do_exit+0x310/0x96c [   90.355688]  do_group_exit+0x3c/0xa0 [   90.359259]  __arm64_sys_exit_group+0x1c/0x20 [   90.363609]  invoke_syscall+0x48/0x114 [   90.367362]  el0_svc_common.constprop.0+0xd4/0xfc [   90.372068]  do_el0_svc+0x2c/0x94 [   90.375379]  el0_svc+0x28/0x80 [   90.378438]  el0t_64_sync_handler+0xa8/0x130 [   90.382711]  el0t_64_sync+0x1a0/0x1a4 [   90.386376] Code: 17ffffda d503201f d503233f f9409802 (b9400041) [   90.392467] ---[ end trace 2f60524b4a43f1f6 ]--- [   90.397073] note: btattach[503] exited with preempt_count 1 [   90.402636] Fixing recursive fault but reboot is needed!
