📋 Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
watchdog: unregister PM notifier on watchdog unregister
watchdog_register_device() registers wdd->pm_nb when WDOG_NO_PING_ON_SUSPEND is set, but watchdog_unregister_device() does not remove it. This leaves an embedded notifier block on the PM notifier chain after the watchdog device has been unregistered.
A later suspend/resume notification can then call watchdog_pm_notifier() with a stale watchdog_device pointer, or at minimum after wdd->wd_data has been cleared by watchdog_dev_unregister().
Unregister the PM notifier before tearing down the watchdog device.
