CVE-2025-37800

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

driver core: fix potential NULL pointer dereference in dev_uevent()

If userspace reads “uevent” device attribute at the same time as another
threads unbinds the device from its driver, change to dev->driver from a
valid pointer to NULL may result in crash. Fix this by using READ_ONCE()
when fetching the pointer, and take bus’ drivers klist lock to make sure
driver instance will not disappear while we access it.

Use WRITE_ONCE() when setting the driver pointer to ensure there is no
tearing.
