[PATCH 02/12] bus: fsl-mc: use generic driver_override infrastructure
Danilo Krummrich

Tue Mar 24 11:59:06 AEDT 2026
When a driver is probed through __driver_attach(), the bus' match()
callback is called without the device lock held, thus accessing the
driver_override field without a lock, which can cause a UAF.
Fix this by using the driver-core driver_override infrastructure taking
care of proper locking internally.
Note that calling match() from __driver_attach() without the device lock
held is intentional. [1]
