There is a small window where the suspend\ncallback may run after PM runtime enabling and before runtime forbid.\nThis causes a sporadic crash during boot:\n\n```\nUnable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000000000a1\n[...]\nCPU: 0 UID: 0 PID: 11 Comm: kworker/0:1 Not tainted 6.16.7+ #116 PREEMPT\nWorkqueue: pm pm_runtime_work\npstate: 20000005 (nzCv daif -PAN -UAO -TCO -DIT -SSBS BTYPE=--)\npc : qusb2_phy_runtime_suspend+0x14/0x1e0 [phy_qcom_qusb2]\nlr : pm_generic_runtime_suspend+0x2c/0x44\n[...]\n```\n\nAttach the QPHY instance as driver data before enabling runtime PM to\nprevent NULL pointer dereference in runtime PM callbacks.\n\nReorder pm_runtime_enable() and pm_runtime_forbid() to prevent a\nshort window where an unnecessary runtime suspend can occur.\n\nUse the devres-managed version to ensure PM runtime is symmetrically\ndisabled during driver removal for proper cleanup.","published":"2026-02-04T17:16:11.000Z","lastModified":"2026-06-17T10:03:52.000Z","status":"Deferred","sourceIdentifier":"416baaa9-dc9f-4396-8d5f-8c081fb06d67","cvss":null,"cwe":[],"affected":[],"epss":{"score":0.00197,"percentile":0.09289,"date":"2026-10-27","history":[]},"kev":{"listed":false},"exploits":{"count":0,"verified":false,"firstPublished":null,"source":"Exploit-DB (https://gitlab.com/exploit-database/exploitdb)","entries":[]},"verdict":{"level":"unknown","text":"Not yet scored.
