What is CVE-2026-46255?

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

dmaengine: fsl-edma: don't explicitly disable clocks in .remove()

The clocks in fsl_edma_engine::muxclk are allocated and enabled with devm_clk_get_enabled(), which automatically cleans these resources up, but these clocks are also manually disabled in fsl_edma_remove(). This causes warnings on driver removal for each clock:

    edma_module already disabled
    WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 418 at drivers/clk/clk.c:1200 clk_core_disable+0x198/0x1c8

    Call trace:

Fix these warnings by removing the unnecessary fsl_disable_clocks() call in fsl_edma_remove().
