CVE-2025-39722

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

crypto: caam - Prevent crash on suspend with iMX8QM / iMX8ULP

Since the CAAM on these SoCs is managed by another ARM core, called the SECO (Security Controller) on iMX8QM and Secure Enclave on iMX8ULP, which also reserves access to register page 0 suspend operations cannot touch this page.

This is similar to when running OPTEE, where OPTEE will reserve page 0.

Track this situation using a new state variable no_page0, reflecting if page 0 is reserved elsewhere, either by other management cores in SoC or by OPTEE.

Replace the optee_en check in suspend/resume with the new check.

optee_en cannot go away as its needed elsewhere to gate OPTEE specific situations.

Fixes the following splat at suspend:
