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

cpufreq: amd-pstate: Remove unnecessary driverlock in setboost

setboost is a per-policy function call, hence a driver wide lock is unnecessary. Also this mutexacquire can collide with the mutexacquire from the mode-switch path in statusstore(), which can lead to a deadlock. So, remove it.
