CVE-2022-50412

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

drm: bridge: adv7511: unregister cec i2c device after cec adapter

cecunregisteradapter() assumes that the underlying adapter ops are callable. For example, if the CEC adapter currently has a valid physical address, then the unregistration procedure will invalidate the physical address by setting it to f.f.f.f. Whence the following kernel oops observed after removing the adv7511 module:

Unable to handle kernel execution of user memory at virtual address 0000000000000000
Internal error: Oops: 86000004 [#1] PREEMPT_RT SMP

Protect against this scenario by unregistering i2c_cec after unregistering the CEC adapter. Duly disable the CEC clock afterwards too.
