CVE-2025-68250 hung_task: fix warnings caused by unaligned lock pointers
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: hungtask: fix warnings caused by unaligned lock pointers The blocker tracking mechanism assumes that lock pointers are at least 4-byte aligned to use their lower bits for type encoding. However, as reported by Eero Tamminen, some...
