CVE: CVE-2022-48895
Published: 2024-08-21
Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

iommu/arm-smmu: Don't unregister on shutdown

Michael Walle says he noticed the following stack trace while performing
a shutdown with "reboot -f". He suggests he got "lucky" and just hit the
correct spot for the reboot while there was a packet transmission in
flight.

Kernel panic - not syncing: Oops: Fatal exception in interrupt

This appears to be reproducible when the board has a fixed IP address,
is ping flooded from another host, and "reboot -f" is used.

The following is one more manifestation of the issue:
