In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
firmware: arm_scmi: Fix double free in SMC transport cleanup path
When the generic SCMI code tears down a channel, it calls the chan_free callback function, defined by each transport. Since multiple protocols might share the same transport_info member, chan_free() might want to clean up the same member multiple times within the given SCMI transport implementation. In this case, it is SMC transport. This will lead to a NULL pointer dereference at the second time:

In this case, it is SMC transport. This will lead to a NULL pointer dereference at the second time:
Simply check for the struct pointer being NULL before trying to access its members, to avoid this situation.
This was found when a transport doesn't really work (for instance no SMC service), the probe routines then tries to clean up, and triggers a crash.
