Subject: CVE-2024-44962: Bluetooth: btnxpuart: Shutdown timer and prevent rearming when driver unloading

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

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

Bluetooth: btnxpuart: Shutdown timer and prevent rearming when driver unloading

When unload the btnxpuart driver, its associated timer will be deleted.
If the timer happens to be modified at this moment, it leads to the
kernel call this timer even after the driver unloaded, resulting in
kernel panic.
Use timer_shutdown_sync() instead of del_timer_sync() to prevent rearming.

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:
