SUSE CVE-2026-53042

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: fwctl: Fix class init ordering to avoid NULL pointer dereference on device removal CXL is linked before fwctl in drivers/Makefile. Both use moduleinit, so cxlpcidriverinit runs first. When cxlpciprobe calls fwctlregister and then...
