CVE-2026-98496

The Linux kernel contains a vulnerability in the airoha npu driver. Specifically, the airoha_npu_remove() function calls cancel_work_sync() on the wdt_work item, but the watchdog IRQ (requested via devm_request_irq()) is only freed after the .remove() function returns. This allows the airoha_npu_...
