Subject: drm/xe/i2c: cancel the client work on remove

This commit aims to fix an issue in xe_i2c_remove() where i2c->work is not
drained before unregistering the adapter. It adds a call to cancel_work_sync()
after bus_unregister_notifier() to prevent a use-after-free if the work runs
after the adapter is unregistered.

[Severity: High]
Does placing the work cancellation here introduce a data race with the client
unregistration loop?

Since cancel_work_sync() is executed after the loop that clears i2c->client
in xe_i2c_remove(), xe_i2c_client_work() can run concurrently on another CPU:

CPU1 (in xe_i2c_remove)                 CPU2 (in xe_i2c_client_work)
for (i = 0; i < XE_I2C_MAX_CLIENTS; i++) {
    i2c_unregister_device(i2c->client[i]);
    i2c->client[i] = NULL;
}
                                        i2c->client[XE_I2C_CLIENT_AMC] =
                                            i2c_new_client_device(...);
cancel_work_sync(&i2c->work);

If the worker writes to the array after the loop has passed the index or
finished entirely, the newly created client device is leaked.

Could cancel_work_sync() and bus_unregister_notifier() be moved to the
beginning of the removal function to prevent this?


[Severity: High]
This isn't a bug introduced by this patch, but does this devres teardown path
leave dangling pointers that could cause a use-after-free during an SMBus
alert interrupt?

In xe_i2c_remove(), xe_amc_exit() is called before we reach this point, which
frees i2c->amc:

drivers/gpu/drm/xe/xe_amc.c:xe_amc_exit() {
    ...
    cancel_work_sync(&i2c->amc->work);
    kfree(i2c->amc);
}

Since i2c->amc is not set to NULL, and hardware interrupts are not disabled in
xe_i2c_remove(), a concurrent or subsequent interrupt can trigger the alert
handler:

drivers/gpu/drm/xe/xe_i2c.c:xe_i2c_handle_smbus_alert() {
    ...
    if (stat & DW_IC_SMBUS_INTR_ALERT && i2c->amc)
        xe_amc_handle_alert(i2c);
}

This calls into xe_amc_handle_alert() which dereferences the freed memory to
queue the work item:

drivers/gpu/drm/xe/xe_amc.c:xe_amc_handle_alert() {
    ...
    queue_work(system_long_wq, &i2c->amc->work);
}

Additionally, xe->i2c is not set to NULL before the devm subsystem frees the
i2c structure, so the active interrupt handler xe_i2c_irq_present() can also
dereference the dangling xe->i2c pointer.

Should hardware interrupts be disabled and these pointers cleared in this
removal function?
