## Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:  scsi: ufs: core: Fix data race in CPU latency PM QoS request handling  The cpu_latency_qos_add/remove/update_request interfaces lack internal synchronization by design, requiring the caller to ensure thread safety. The current implementation relies on the 'pm_qos_enabled' flag, which is insufficient to prevent concurrent access and cannot serve as a proper synchronization mechanism. This has led to data races and list corruption issues.  A typical race condition call trace is:  [Thread A] ufshcd_pm_qos_exit()   --> cpu_latency_qos_remove_request()     --> cpu_latency_qos_apply();       --> pm_qos_update_target()         --> plist_del              <--(1) delete plist node     --> memset(req, 0, sizeof(*req));   --> hba->pm_qos_enabled = false;  [Thread B] ufshcd_devfreq_target   --> ufshcd_devfreq_scale     --> ufshcd_scale_clks       --> ufshcd_pm_qos_update     <--(2) pm_qos_enabled is true         --> cpu_latency_qos_update_request           --> pm_qos_update_target             --> plist_del          <--(3) plist node use-after-free  Introduces a dedicated mutex to serialize PM QoS operations, preventing data races and ensuring safe access to PM QoS resources, including sysfs interface reads.
