Official Description

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

spi: fix statistics allocation

The controller per-cpu statistics is not allocated until after the

controller has been registered with driver core, which leaves a window

where accessing the sysfs attributes can trigger a NULL-pointer

dereference.

Fix this by moving the statistics allocation to controller allocation

while tying its lifetime to that of the controller (rather than using

implicit devres).
