Descriptions
In the Linux kernel before 5.16.3, drivers/scsi/ufs/ufs-mediatek.c misinterprets the regulator_get return value (expects it to be NULL in the error case, whereas it is actually an error pointer).
The SUSE Linux Enterprise 15 SP5 AZURE kernel was updated to receive various security and bug fixes.
