Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: rtw89: pci: configure manual DAC mode via PCI config API only
To support 36-bit DMA, configure chip proprietary bit via PCI config API
or chip DBI interface. However, the PCI device mmap isn't set yet and
the DBI is also inaccessible via mmap, so only if the bit can be accessible
via PCI config API, chip can support 36-bit DMA. Otherwise, fallback to
32-bit DMA.
With NULL mmap address, kernel throws trace:
BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: 0000000000001090
