Exploitability: 1.8 / Impact: 3.6

Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
w1: fix NULL pointer dereference in probe
The w1_uart_probe() function calls w1_uart_serdev_open() (which includes
devm_serdev_device_open()) before setting the client ops via
serdev_device_set_client_ops(). This ordering can trigger a NULL pointer
dereference in the serdev controller's receive_buf handler, as it assumes
serdev->ops is valid when SERPORT_ACTIVE is set.
This is similar to the issue fixed in commit 5e700b384ec1
("platform/chrome: cros_ec_uart: properly fix race condition") where
devm_serdev_device_open() was called before fully initializing the
device.
Fix the race by ensuring client ops are set before enabling the port via
w1_uart_serdev_open().
