[PATCH 1/5] clk: renesas: rzv2h: Fix use-after-free in MSTOP refcount handling

From: Prabhakar
Date: Wed Dec 18 2024 - 09:21:14 EST


From: Lad Prabhakar <prabhakar.mahadev-lad.rj@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Avoid triggering a `refcount_t: addition on 0; use-after-free.` warning
when registering a module clock with the same MSTOP configuration. The
issue arises when a module clock is registered but not enabled, resulting
in a `ref_cnt` of 0. Subsequent calls to `refcount_inc()` on such clocks
cause the kernel to warn about use-after-free.

Resolve this by checking the `ref_cnt` value before calling
`refcount_inc()`. If `ref_cnt` is 0, reset it to 1 using `refcount_set()`.
