  - iio: adc: spear: Initialize completion before requesting IRQ In the report from Jaeyoung Chung:
    spear_adc_probe() in drivers/iio/adc/spear_adc.c registers its interrupt handler with devm_request_irq()
    before it initializes st->completion with init_completion(). If an interrupt arrives after
    devm_request_irq() and before init_completion(), the handler calls complete() on an uninitialized
    completion, causing a kernel panic. The probe path, in spear_adc_probe(): iodev =
    devm_iio_device_alloc(&pdev->dev, sizeof(*st)); /* st kzalloc-zeroed */ ... retval =
    devm_request_irq(&pdev->dev, irq, spear_adc_isr, 0, LPC32XXAD_NAME, st); /* register handler */ ...
    init_completion(&st->completion); /* initialize completion */ spear_adc_isr() calls complete():
    complete(&st->completion); If the device raises an interrupt before init_completion() runs, complete()
    acquires the uninitialized wait.lock and walks the zeroed task_list in swake_up_locked(). The zeroed
    task_list makes list_empty() return false, so swake_up_locked() dereferences a NULL list entry, triggering
    a KASAN wild-memory-access. Fix the chance of a spurious IRQ causing an uninitialized pointer dereference
    by moving init_completion() above devm_request_irq(). (CVE-2026-64602)

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