CVE-2026-98903

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

mailbox: imx: Add a channel shutdown field

sashiko complained about possible teardown problem. The scenario

CPU 0 CPU 1
imx_mu_isr() imx_mu_shutdown()
imx_mu_xcr_rmw(priv, IMX_MU_RCR, 0, IMX_MU_xCR_RIEn(priv->dcfg->type, cp->idx));
imx_mu_specific_rx()
imx_mu_xcr_rmw(priv, IMX_MU_RCR, IMX_MU_xCR_RIEn(priv->dcfg->type, 0), 0);
free_irq()

The RX event remains enabled because in this short window the RX event
was disabled in ->shutdown() while the interrupt was active and then
enabled again by the ISR while ->shutdown waited in free_irq().

This race requires timing and if happens can be problematic on shared
handlers if the 'removed' channel triggers an interrupt. In this case
the irq-core will shutdown the interrupt with the 'nobody cared'
message.

Introduce imx_mu_con_priv::shutdown to signal that the channel is
shutting down. This flag is set with the lock held (by
imx_mu_xcr_clr_shut()). The unmask side uses imx_mu_xcr_set_act() which
only enables the event if the channel has not been shutdown and
serialises on the same lock.
