SUSE: CVE-2025-21889: SUSE Linux Security Advisory

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

perf/core: Add RCU read lock protection to perf_iterate_ctx()

The perf_iterate_ctx() function performs RCU list traversal but
currently lacks RCU read lock protection. This causes lockdep warnings
when running perf probe with unshare(1) under CONFIG_PROVE_RCU_LIST=y:

WARNING: suspicious RCU usage
kernel/events/core.c:8168 RCU-list traversed in non-reader section!!

Call Trace:
lockdep_rcu_suspicious
? perf_event_addr_filters_apply
perf_iterate_ctx
perf_event_exec
begin_new_exec
? load_elf_phdrs

? bprm_execve
bprm_execve
do_execveat_common.isra.0
__x64_sys_execve
do_syscall_64
entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe

This protection was previously present but was removed in commit
bd2756811766 ("perf: Rewrite core context handling"). Add back the
necessary rcu_read_lock()/rcu_read_unlock() pair around
perf_iterate_ctx() call in perf_event_exec().

[ mingo: Use scoped_guard() as suggested by Peter ]
