Description OSIDB Bzimport 2024-12-29 12:01:38 UTC 
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

crypto: caam - Fix the pointer passed to caam_qi_shutdown()

The type of the last parameter given to devm_add_action_or_reset() is
"struct caam_drv_private *", but in caam_qi_shutdown(), it is casted to
"struct device *".

Pass the correct parameter to devm_add_action_or_reset() so that the
resources are released as expected.
