CVE-2023-53565
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: brcmfmac: Check for probe() id argument being NULL
The probe() id argument may be NULL in 2 scenarios:
1. Is being hit by users causing the following oops on resume and causing wifi to stop working:
Fix this by checking for id being NULL.
In the PCI and USB cases try a manual lookup of the id so that manually binding the driver through sysfs and more importantly brcmf_pcie_probe() on resume will work.
For the SDIO case there is no helper to do a manual sdio_device_id lookup, so just directly error out on a NULL id there.

1. brcmf_pcie_pm_leave_D3() calling brcmf_pcie_probe() to reprobe the device. 2. If a user tries to manually bind the driver from sysfs then the sdio / pcie / usb probe() function gets called with NULL as id argument.
