In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: hwmon: (lm90) Add lock protection to lm90_alert Sashiko reports: lm90_alert() executes in the smbus alert context and calls lm90_update_confreg() to disable the hardware alert line, without acquiring hwmon_lock. Concurrently, sysfs write operations (such as lm90_write_convrate) hold the hwmon_lock, temporarily modify data->config, and then restore it. If an alert interrupt occurs concurrently with a sysfs write, the sysfs path will overwrite the alert handler's modifications to data->config and the hardware register. This unintentionally re-enables the hardware alert line while the alarm is still active, causing an interrupt storm. Add the missing lock to lm90_alert() to solve the problem.
