Bug 2541059 (CVE-2026-98020)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

pds_core: fix cmd_regs access racing BAR unmap on reset

pdsc_reset_prepare() and pdsc_reset_done()'s pdsc_map_bars() error path
clear/iounmap cmd_regs without devcmd_lock, and
pdsc_legacy_firmware_update()'s download loop derefs cmd_regs after
dropping and retaking the lock without re-checking. An FLR concurrent
with a devlink flash can unmap cmd_regs under an in-flight devcmd,
causing a NULL deref or a write to unmapped MMIO.

Take devcmd_lock across the BAR unmap/remap, and re-check cmd_regs in
the download loop. Only the PF maps cmd_regs and runs devcmd, so skip
the unmap on a VF, as pdsc_remove() and pdsc_reset_done() already do.

A reset that completes entirely within the unlocked window is not a
correctness problem for the image: the device clears its update session,
so a resumed download is rejected, and it verifies the staged image
before writing a flash slot, reporting PDS_RC_BAD_FW rather than
activating it.

pdsc_unmap_bars() also clears info_regs, intr_status and intr_ctrl. The
interrupt and start/stop readers of those are quiesced before the unmap
by pdsc_fw_down(), which frees the interrupts and tears down the queues.
The debugfs readers are not, since those files outlive a reset; that is
pre-existing and out of scope here.
