Summary

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

LoongArch: Fix warnings during S3 suspend

The enable_gpe_wakeup() function calls acpi_enable_all_wakeup_gpes(), and the later one may call the preempt_schedule_common() function, resulting in a thread switch and causing the CPU to be in an interrupt enabled state after the enable_gpe_wakeup() function returns, leading to the warnings as follow.

The root cause is acpi_enable_all_wakeup_gpes() uses a mutex to protect acpi_hw_enable_all_wakeup_gpes(), and acpi_ut_acquire_mutex() may cause a thread switch. Since there is no longer concurrent execution during loongarch_acpi_suspend(), we can call acpi_hw_enable_all_wakeup_gpes() directly in enable_gpe_wakeup().

The solution is similar to commit 22db06337f590d01 ("ACPI: sleep: Avoid breaking S3 wakeup due to might_sleep()").
