Upstream source description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amdgpu: skip gfx switch_power_profile during GPU reset During resume from GPU reset, the gfx idle work may invoke switch_power_profile before the reset completes. This causes the following assert error because the register access occurs without first releasing the GPU reset semaphore: [ 1576.768935] CR2: 0000559ea133ead0 CR3: 00000002e6c42000 CR4: 0000000000350ef0 [ 1576.768940] Call Trace: [ 1576.768944] <TASK> [ 1576.768953] amdgpu_device_rreg+0x21/0x50 [amdgpu] [ 1576.769158] smu_msg_v1_send_msg+0x1a4/0x6e0 [amdgpu] [ 1576.769437] smu_cmn_send_smc_msg_with_params_ext+0xba/0x120 [amdgpu] [ 1576.769721] smu_cmn_send_smc_msg_with_param+0x33/0x40 [amdgpu] [ 1576.769993] smu_v13_0_0_set_power_profile_mode+0x192/0x2b0 [amdgpu] [ 1576.770267] smu_bump_power_profile_mode+0x5d/0x80 [amdgpu] [ 1576.770538] smu_switch_power_profile+0xa4/0xf0 [amdgpu] [ 1576.770839] amdgpu_dpm_switch_power_profile+0x6f/0x90 [amdgpu] [ 1576.771210] amdgpu_gfx_profile_idle_work_handler+0xe9/0x130 [amdgpu] [ 1576.771460] process_one_work+0x23e/0x6f0 [ 1576.771491] worker_thread+0x1c4/0x380 [ 1576.771506] kthread+0x10c/0x150 [ 1576.771512] ? __pfx_worker_thread+0x10/0x10 [ 1576.771518] ? __pfx_kthread+0x10/0x10 [ 1576.771530] ret_from_fork+0x314/0x390 [ 1576.771537] ? __pfx_kthread+0x10/0x10 [ 1576.771546] ret_from_fork_asm+0x1a/0x30 (cherry picked from commit d93b1ff538ce9750c01e0dd0aa62575579c0fc08)
