Security Vulnerabilities
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fbdev/ep93xx-fb: Do not assign to struct fb_info.dev
Do not assing the Linux device to struct fb_info.dev. The call to
register_framebuffer() initializes the field to the fbdev device.
Drivers should not override its value.
Fixes a bug where the driver incorrectly decreases the hardware
device's reference counter and leaks the fbdev device.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: ath11k: Fix SKB corruption in REO destination ring
While running traffics for a long time, randomly an RX descriptor
filled with value "0" from REO destination ring is received.
This descriptor which is invalid causes the wrong SKB (SKB stored in
the IDR lookup with buffer id "0") to be fetched which in turn
causes SKB memory corruption issue and the same leads to crash
after some time.
Changed the start id for idr allocation to "1" and the buffer id "0"
is reserved for error validation. Introduced Sanity check to validate
the descriptor, before processing the SKB.
Crash Signature :
Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address 3f004900

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/msm/dp: Free resources after unregistering them
The DP component's unbind operation walks through the submodules to
unregister and clean things up. But if the unbind happens because the DP
controller itself is being removed, all the memory for those submodules
has just been freed.
Change the order of these operations to avoid the many use-after-free
that otherwise happens in this code path.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rbd: avoid use-after-free in do_rbd_add() when rbd_dev_create() fails
If getting an ID or setting up a work queue in rbd_dev_create() fails,
use-after-free on rbd_dev->rbd_client, rbd_dev->spec and rbd_dev->opts
is triggered in do_rbd_add(). The root cause is that the ownership of
these structures is transfered to rbd_dev prematurely and they all end
up getting freed when rbd_dev_create() calls rbd_dev_free() prior to
returning to do_rbd_add().
Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE, an
incomplete patch submitted by Natalia Petrova <n.petrova@fintech.ru>.

net: fec: Better handle pm_runtime_get() failing in .remove()
In the (unlikely) event that pm_runtime_get() (disguised as
pm_runtime_resume_and_get()) fails, the remove callback returned an
error early. The problem with this is that the driver core ignores the
error value and continues removing the device. This results in a
resource leak. Worse the devm allocated resources are freed and so if a
callback of the driver is called later the register mapping is already
gone which probably results in a crash.
