CVE-2025-38594

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

iommu/vt-d: Fix UAF on sva unbind with pending IOPFs

Commit 17fce9d2336d ("iommu/vt-d: Put iopf enablement in domain attach
path") disables IOPF on device by removing the device from its IOMMU's
IOPF queue when the last IOPF-capable domain is detached from the device.
Unfortunately, it did this in a wrong place where there are still pending
IOPFs. As a result, a use-after-free error is potentially triggered and
eventually a kernel panic with a kernel trace similar to the following:

 refcount_t: underflow; use-after-free.
 WARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 313 at lib/refcount.c:28 refcount_warn_saturate+0xd8/0xe0
 Workqueue: iopf_queue/dmar0-iopfq iommu_sva_handle_iopf

  ---[ end trace 0000000000000000 ]---

The intel_pasid_tear_down_entry() function is responsible for blocking
hardware from generating new page faults and flushing all in-flight
ones. Therefore, moving iopf_for_domain_remove() after this function
should resolve this.
