Original description
The description as published by the source.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
powerpc/pci: Fix get_phb_number() locking
The recent change to get_phb_number() causes a DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP
warning on some systems:
BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/locking/mutex.c:580

This is because pcibios_alloc_controller() holds hose_spinlock but
of_alias_get_id() takes of_mutex which can sleep.
The hose_spinlock protects the phb_bitmap, and also the hose_list, but
it doesn't need to be held while get_phb_number() calls the O…
