  "description": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:  spmi: Add a check for remove callback when removing a SPMI driver  When removing a SPMI driver, there can be a crash due to NULL pointer dereference if it does not have a remove callback defined. This is one such call trace observed when removing the QCOM SPMI PMIC driver:   dump_backtrace.cfi_jt\u002B0x0/0x8  dump_stack_lvl\u002B0xd8/0x16c  panic\u002B0x188/0x498  __cfi_slowpath\u002B0x0/0x214  __cfi_slowpath\u002B0x1dc/0x214  spmi_drv_remove\u002B0x16c/0x1e0  device_release_driver_internal\u002B0x468/0x79c  driver_detach\u002B0x11c/0x1a0  bus_remove_driver\u002B0xc4/0x124  driver_unregister\u002B0x58/0x84  cleanup_module\u002B0x1c/0xc24 [qcom_spmi_pmic]  __do_sys_delete_module\u002B0x3ec/0x53c  __arm64_sys_delete_module\u002B0x18/0x28  el0_svc_common\u002B0xdc/0x294  el0_svc\u002B0x38/0x9c  el0_sync_handler\u002B0x8c/0xf0  el0_sync\u002B0x1b4/0x1c0  If a driver has all its resources allocated through devm_() APIs and does not need any other explicit cleanup, it would not require a remove callback to be defined. Hence, add a check for remove callback presence before calling it when removing a SPMI driver.",
