Description OSIDB Bzimport 2025-09-11 17:02:17 UTC 
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

regulator: pca9450: Use devm_register_sys_off_handler

With module test, there is error dump:
------------[ cut here ]------------
  notifier callback pca9450_i2c_restart_handler already registered
  WARNING: kernel/notifier.c:23 at notifier_chain_register+0x5c/0x88,
  CPU#0: kworker/u16:3/50
  Call trace:

  __device_attach_driver+0xd4/0x12c

So use devm_register_sys_off_handler to let kernel handle the resource
free to avoid kernel dump.
