Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: ufs: core: Fix deadlock during RTC update
There is a deadlock when runtime suspend waits for the flush of RTC work,
and the RTC work calls ufshcd_rpm_get_sync() to wait for runtime resume.
Here is deadlock backtrace:
