NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-headers package and not the kernel-headers package as distributed by RHEL.

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

drm/radeon: Do not kfree() devres managed rdev

Since the allocation of the drivers main structure was changed to devm_drm_dev_alloc() rdev is managed by devres and we shouldn't be calling kfree() on it.

This fixes things exploding if the driver probe fails and devres cleans up the rdev after we already free'd it.
