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

pmdomain: arm: Fix NULL dereference on scmi_perf_domain removal

On unloading of the scmi_perf_domain module got the below splat, when in

the DT provided to the system under test the '#power-domain-cells' property

was missing. Indeed, this particular setup causes the probe to bail out

early without giving any error, which leads to the ->remove() callback gets

to run too, but without all the expected initialized structures in place.

Add a check and bail out early on remove too.
