Lifecycle Timeline
3Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amdgpu: init return value in amdgpu_ttm_clear_buffer Otherwise an uninitialized value can be returned if amdgpu_res_cleared returns true for all regions. Possibly closes: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/amd/-/issues/3812 (cherry picked from commit 7c62aacc3b452f73a1284198c81551035fac6d71)
