## Overview

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

iio: gyro: mpu3050: Move iio_device_register() to correct location

iio_device_register() should be at the end of the probe function to
prevent race conditions.

Place iio_device_register() at the end of the probe function and place
iio_device_unregister() accordingly.

## Affected

- `linux_kernel >= 4.10, < 5.10.253`
- `linux_kernel >= 5.11, < 5.15.203`
- `linux_kernel >= 5.16, < 6.1.168`
- `linux_kernel >= 6.2, < 6.6.134`
- `linux_kernel >= 6.7, < 6.12.81`
- `linux_kernel >= 6.13, < 6.18.22`
- `linux_kernel >= 6.19, < 6.19.12`
- `linux_kernel = 7.0`

## Remediation

Upgrade past the affected range:

- `linux_kernel 6.19.12`
