Subject: CVE-2024-38615: cpufreq: exit() callback is optional

Description
===========

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

cpufreq: exit() callback is optional

The exit() callback is optional and shouldn't be called without checking
a valid pointer first.

Also, we must clear freq_table pointer even if the exit() callback isn't
present.

The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2024-38615 to this issue.

Mitigation
==========

The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest
stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes.  Individual
changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel
release.  Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or
supported by the Linux kernel community at all.  If however, updating to
the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this
issue can be found at these commits:
