## Overview

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

media: mtk-jpeg: cancel workqueue on release for supported platforms only

Since a recent fix the mtk_jpeg_release function cancels any pending
or running work present in the driver workqueue using
cancel_work_sync function.
Currently, only the multicore based variants use this workqueue and they
have the jpeg_worker platform data field initialized with a workqueue
callback function. For the others, this field value remain NULL by
default.
The cancel_work_sync function is unconditionally called in
mtk_jpeg_release function, even for the variants that do not use the
workqueue. This call generates a WARN_ON print in __flush_work because
the workqueue callback function presence check fails in __flush_work
function (used by cancel_work_sync).

So, to avoid these warnings, call cancel_work_sync only if a workqueue
callback is defined in platform data.

## Affected

- `linux_kernel >= 6.6.140, < 6.6.145`
- `linux_kernel >= 6.12.86, < 6.12.96`
- `linux_kernel >= 6.18.27, < 6.18.39`
- `linux_kernel >= 7.0.4, < 7.1.4`

## Remediation

Upgrade past the affected range:

- `linux_kernel 7.1.4`
