In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iommu/vt-d: Fix NULL domain on device release
In the kdump kernel, the IOMMU operates in deferredattach mode. In this mode, info->domain may not yet be assigned by the time the releasedevice function is called. It leads to the following crash in the crash kernel:
BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 000000000000003c

Use the releasedomain mechanism to fix it. The scalable mode context entry which is not part of release domain should be cleared in releasedevice().
