In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drivers/perf: hisi: Don't migrate perf to the CPU going to teardown
The driver needs to migrate the perf context if the current using CPU going
to teardown. By the time calling the cpuhp::teardown() callback the
cpu_online_mask() hasn't updated yet and still includes the CPU going to
teardown. In current driver's implementation we may migrate the context
to the teardown CPU and leads to the below calltrace:
