CVE-2026-97948

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
powerpc/eeh: Fix recursive locking on devices without EEH sensitive driver
The commit 1010b4c012b0 ("powerpc/eeh: Make EEH driver device hotplug safe") refactored the EEH code such that the pci_rescan_remove_lock is held at the beginning of eeh_handle_normal_event() and the eeh_reset_device() is called with that lock being held. Looks like the commit missed to remove the existing lock/unlock inside eeh_rmv_device() which is no longer necessary. This is causing the eehd to hang on the lock which it actually holds when that code path is taken.

The issue is seen for cases where the errors are detected on the PHB directly AND|OR for devices where the driver error_detected() returns PCI_ERS_RESULT_NEED_RESET, and driver being not EEH sensitive(i.e no error handlers like slot_reset(), resume() etc defined).
