dmaengine: qcom: bam_dma: fix runtime PM underflow

Noroxi assessment

Priority: Monitor (action score 22/100)

  • The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
  • Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.26% (FIRST EPSS).
  • Someone with local access to the system can trigger it. A low-privileged account is enough. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
  • Fixed version: Linux Linux 0ac9c3dd0d6fe293cd5044cfad10bec27d171e4e, 2f6ded79068cac8cff41d5d5632564165d98ee12, b702a1077b51fcb39507cc3bd39206f539319a96.

Low priority for now. Upgrade to Linux Linux 0ac9c3dd0d6fe293cd5044cfad10bec27d171e4e, 2f6ded79068cac8cff41d5d5632564165d98ee12, b702a1077b51fcb39507cc3bd39206f539319a96 or later.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: dmaengine: qcom: bam_dma: fix runtime PM underflow Commit dbad41e7bb5f ("dmaengine: qcom: bam_dma: check if the runtime pm enabled") caused unbalanced pm_runtime_get/put() calls when the bam is controlled remotely. This commit reverts it and just enables pm_runtime in all cases, the clk_* functions already just nop when the clock is NULL. Also clean up a bit by removing unnecessary bamclk null checks.
