So drop __initconst annotations."

{

"value": "AV:L - The vulnerable code is a clock-gate operation in the MediaTek clk driver, reached only by local clock-framework calls (driver/runtime-PM toggling); no remote network input flows into it, so the attacker needs local system access.\nAC:L - This is a use-after-free that becomes active deterministically once free_initmem() releases the .init.rodata gate arrays; the first runtime toggle of an affected gate reliably dereferences freed memory with no race or attacker-uncontrollable condition.\nPR:L - On these SoCs the affected peripheral gates are toggled by ordinary runtime-PM/device-idle transitions that an unprivileged local user can induce through normal device I/O, so basic unprivileged access suffices.\nUI:N - Triggering only requires a clock enable/disable on an affected gate; no victim action such as opening a file or mounting a filesystem is needed.\nS:U - The dangling pointer and its impact are entirely within the kernel's clock subsystem; no VM, IOMMU, or sandbox boundary is crossed.\nC:H - The UAF reads a freed init-memory object whose contents can be reclaimed/sprayed by the attacker, and the controlled gate->regs pointer is dereferenced for register offsets, enabling kernel-memory disclosure.\nI:H - Attacker-influenced freed-memory contents control gate->shift and gate->regs, turning regmap_write(offset, BIT(shift)) into a corrupted/controlled MMIO write — memory corruption leverageable beyond simple modification.\nA:H - Dereferencing the dangling cg->gate pointer (and a corrupted gate->regs) after init memory is freed reliably causes a kernel oops/crash."
