  - spi: ch341: fix devres lifetime USB drivers bind to USB interfaces and any device managed resources should
    have their lifetime tied to the interface rather than parent USB device. This avoids issues like memory
    leaks when drivers are unbound without their devices being physically disconnected (e.g. on probe deferral
    or configuration changes). Fix the controller and driver data lifetime so that they are released on driver
    unbind. Note that this also makes sure that the SPI controller is placed correctly under the USB interface
    in the device tree. (CVE-2026-46228)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.");
