CVE-2025-39814
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ice: fix NULL pointer dereference in ice_unplug_aux_dev() on reset
Issuing a reset when the driver is loaded without RDMA support, will
results in a crash as it attempts to remove RDMA’s non-existent auxbus
device:
echo 1 > /sys/class/net/
BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000008

ice_unplug_aux_dev() checks pf->cdev_info->adev for NULL pointer, but
pf->cdev_info will also be NULL, leading to the deref in the trace above.
Introduce a flag to be set when the creation of the auxbus device is
successful, to avoid multiple NULL pointer checks in ice_unplug_aux_dev().
