      "summary": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\narch/arm64: Fix topology initialization for core scheduling\n\nArm64 systems rely on store_cpu_topology() to call update_siblings_masks()\nto transfer the toplogy to the various cpu masks. This needs to be done\nbefore the call to notify_cpu_starting() which tells the scheduler about\neach cpu found, otherwise the core scheduling data structures are setup\nin a way that does not match the actual topology.\n\nWith smt_mask not setup correctly we bail on `cpumask_weight(smt_mask) == 1`\nfor !leaders in:\n\n notify_cpu_starting()\n   cpuhp_invoke_callback_range()\n     sched_cpu_starting()\n       sched_core_cpu_starting()\n\nwhich leads to rq->core not being correctly set for !leader-rq's.\n\nWithout this change stress-ng (which enables core scheduling in its prctl\ntests in newer versions -- i.e. with PR_SCHED_CORE support) causes a warning\nand then a crash (trimmed for legibility):\n\n[ 1853.805168] ------------[ cut here ]------------\n[ 1853.809784] task_rq(b)->core != rq->core\n[ 1853.809792] WARNING: CPU: 117 PID: 0 at kernel/sched/fair.c:11102 cfs_prio_less+0x1b4/0x1c4\n...\n[ 1854.015210] Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000000000000010\n...\n[ 1854.231256] Call trace:\n[ 1854.233689]  pick_next_task+0x3dc/0x81c\n[ 1854.237512]  __schedule+0x10c/0x4cc\n[ 1854.240988]  schedule_idle+0x34/0x54",
