CVE-2025-21729
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

wifi: rtw89: fix race between cancel_hw_scan and hw_scan completion

The rtwdev->scanning flag isn't protected by mutex originally, so
cancel_hw_scan can pass the condition, but suddenly hw_scan completion
unset the flag and calls ieee80211_scan_completed() that will free
local->hw_scan_req. Then, cancel_hw_scan raises null-ptr-deref and
use-after-free. Fix it by moving the check condition to where
protected by mutex.

 KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x0000000000000088-0x000000000000008f]
