Description
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's GPIO (General Purpose Input/Output) SCH controller. When the PREEMPT_RT (Preemptible Real-Time) feature is enabled, a locking mechanism intended for sleeping contexts is incorrectly used within a non-sleepable interrupt setup path. This can lead to a system crash, resulting in a denial of service.
