Vulnerability CVE-2024-38664
Published: 2024-06-24

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

drm: zynqmp_dpsub: Always register bridge

We must always register the DRM bridge, since zynqmp_dp_hpd_work_func
calls drm_bridge_hpd_notify, which in turn expects hpd_mutex to be
initialized. We do this before zynqmp_dpsub_drm_init since that calls
drm_bridge_attach. This fixes the following lockdep warning:
