This happens because, although `prepare_fb` and `cleanup_fb` are
perfectly balanced, we cannot guarantee consistency in the check
plane->state->fb == state->fb. This means that sometimes we can increase
the refcount in `prepare_fb` and don't decrease it in `cleanup_fb`. The
opposite can also be true.
In fact, the struct drm_plane .state shouldn't be accessed directly
but instead, the `drm_atomic_get_new_plane_state()` helper function should
be used. So, we could stick to this check, but using
`drm_atomic_get_new_plane_state()`. But actually, this check is not re

Bluetooth: btintel: Fix null ptr deref in btintel_read_version
If hci_cmd_sync_complete() is triggered and skb is NULL, then
hdev->req_skb is NULL, which will cause this issue.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/smc: reduce rtnl pressure in smc_pnet_create_pnetids_list()
Many syzbot reports show extreme rtnl pressure, and many of them hint
that smc acquires rtnl in netns creation for no good reason [1]
This patch returns early from smc_pnet_net_init()
if there is no netdevice yet.
I am not even sure why smc_pnet_create_pnetids_list() even exists,
because smc_pnet_netdev_event() is also calling
smc_pnet_add_base_pnetid() when handling NETDEV_UP event.

btrfs: send: handle path ref underflow in header iterate_inode_ref()
Change BUG_ON to proper error handling if building the path buffer
fails. The pointers are not printed so we don't accidentally leak kernel

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: handle chunk tree lookup error in btrfs_relocate_sys_chunks()
The unhandled case in btrfs_relocate_sys_chunks() loop is a corruption,
as it could be caused only by two impossible conditions:
- at first the search key is set up to look for a chunk tree item, with
offset -1, this is an inexact search and the key->offset will contain
the correct offset upon a successful search, a valid chunk tree item
cannot have an offset -1
- after first successful search, the found_key corresponds to a chunk
item, the offset is decremented by 1 before the next loop, it's
impossible to find a chunk item there due to alignment and size
constraints

wifi: cfg80211: check A-MSDU format more carefully
If it looks like there's another subframe in the A-MSDU
but the header isn't fully there, we can end up reading
data out of bounds, only to discard later. Make this a
bit more careful and check if the subframe header can
even be present.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: ath11k: decrease MHI channel buffer length to 8KB
Currently buf_len field of ath11k_mhi_config_qca6390 is assigned
with 0, making MHI use a default size, 64KB, to allocate channel
buffers. This is likely to fail in some scenarios where system
memory is highly fragmented and memory compaction or reclaim is
not allowed.
There is a fail report which is caused by it:

Actually those buffers are used only by QMI target -> host communication.
And for WCN6855 and QCA6390, the largest packet size for that is less
than 6KB. So change buf_len field to 8KB, which results in order 1
allocation if page size is 4KB. In this way, we can at least save some
memory, and as well as decrease the possibility of allocation failure
in those scenarios.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dma-direct: Leak pages on dma_set_decrypted() failure
On TDX it is possible for the untrusted host to cause
set_memory_encrypted() or set_memory_decrypted() to fail such that an
error is returned and the resulting memory is shared. Callers need to
take care to handle these errors to avoid returning decrypted (shared)
memory to the page allocator, which could lead to functional or security
issues.
DMA could free decrypted/shared pages if dma_set_decrypted() fails. This
should be a rare case. Just leak the pages in this case instead of
freeing them.
