Descriptions

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: ath12k: fix GCC_GCC_PCIE_HOT_RST definition for WCN7850 GCC_GCC_PCIE_HOT_RST is wrongly defined for WCN7850, causing kernel crash
on some specific platforms. Since this register is divergent for WCN7850 and QCN9274, move it to
register table to allow different definitions. Then correct the register
address for WCN7850 to fix this issue. Note IPQ5332 is not affected as it is not PCIe based device. Tested-on: WCN7850 hw2.0 PCI WLAN.HMT.1.0.c5-00481-QCAHMTSWPL_V1.0_V2.0_SILICONZ-3

En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: wifi: ath12k: corrección de la definición de GCC_GCC_PCIE_HOT_RST para WCN7850. GCC_GCC_PCIE_HOT_RST está mal definido para WCN7850, lo que provoca un fallo del kernel en algunas plataformas específicas. Dado que este registro es divergente para WCN7850 y QCN9274, muévalo a la tabla de registros para permitir definiciones diferentes. A continuación, corrija la dirección del registro de WCN7850 para solucionar este problema. Nota: IPQ5332 no se ve afectado, ya que no es un dispositivo basado en PCIe. Probado en: WCN7850 hw2.0 PCI WLAN.HMT.1.0.c5-00481-QCAHMTSWPL_V1.0_V2.0_SILICONZ-3

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: ath12k: fix...
