Upgrade SLES:15.4 reiserfs-kmp-default to version 5.14.21-150400.24.170.2 or higher.

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream reiserfs-kmp-default package and not the reiserfs-kmp-default package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:15.4 relevant fixed versions and status.

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

powerpc/iommu: fix memory leak with using debugfs_lookup()

When calling debugfs_lookup() the result must have dput() called on it, otherwise the memory will leak over time. To make things simpler, just call debugfs_lookup_and_remove() instead which handles all of the logic at once.
