[SRU][OEM-5.17][OEM-6.0][PATCH 0/1] CVE-2023-1118

[Magali Lemes]

[Impact]
A flaw use after free in the Linux kernel integrated infrared
receiver/transceiver driver was found in the way user detaching rc device. A
local user could use this flaw to crash the system or potentially escalate
their privileges on the system.

[Backport]
Clean cherry-pick.

[Test]
Compiled, boot and module load tested.

[Regression potential]
Minimal, since we're only unregistering the RC device and adding
del_timer_sync() to deactivate the tx_sim_timer timer as first actions in the
ene_remove() function. Regressions would possibly only affect users of the
infrared receiver/transceiver made by ENE.
