Summary

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: iio: adc: ad_sigma_delta: fix CS held asserted and state leaks In ad_sigma_delta_single_conversion(), set_mode(AD_SD_MODE_IDLE) and disable_one() were called from the out: block while keep_cs_asserted was still true.

This caused any SPI transfer issued by those callbacks to carry cs_change=1, leaving CS permanently asserted after the conversion. Fix by moving both calls into the out_unlock: block, after keep_cs_asserted is cleared, matching the pattern already used in ad_sd_calibrate().

In the error path of ad_sd_buffer_postenable(), if an operation fails after set_mode(AD_SD_MODE_CONTINUOUS) has already succeeded (e.g. spi_offload_trigger_enable()), the device is left in continuous conversion mode with CS physically asserted.

Additionally, bus_locked remaining true after spi_bus_unlock() causes subsequent SPI operations to call spi_sync_locked() without the bus lock actually held, allowing concurrent SPI access.

Fix the error path by clearing keep_cs_asserted first, then calling set_mode(AD_SD_MODE_IDLE) to revert the device mode and deassert CS, then clearing bus_locked before releasing the bus.

For devices that implement neither set_mode nor disable_one (such as MAX11205, which has no physical CS pin), no SPI transfer is issued during cleanup and the cs_change flag has no effect on any physical line.
