UBUNTU-CVE-2026-31770: Medium severity ubuntu/linux-hwe-edge vulnerability
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: hwmon: (occ) Fix division by zero in occshowpower1() In occshowpower1() case 1, the accumulator is divided by updatetag without checking for zero. If no samples have been collected yet (e.g. during early boot when the sensor block is included but hasn't been updated), updatetag is zero, causing a kernel divide-by-zero crash. The 2019 fix in commit 211186cae14d ("hwmon: (occ) Fix division by zero issue") only addressed occgetpowravg() used by occshowpower2() and occshowpowera0(). This separate code path in occshowpower1() was missed. Fix this by reusing the existing occgetpowravg() helper, which already handles the zero-sample case and uses mulu64u32div() to multiply before dividing for better precision. Move the helper above occshowpower1() so it is visible at the call site. [groeck: Fix alignment problems reported by checkpatch]

In the Linux kernel hwmon OCC driver, change occ_show_power_1() case 1 to reuse the existing occ_get_powr_avg() helper, and move that helper above occ_show_power_1() so it is visible at the call site. This handles the zero-sample/update_tag-zero case and uses mul_u64_u32_div() for the multiplication-before-division calculation.
