If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 67b5d0e9fed7c083ff633f3d4bb998396c21ed20 Author: Jiasheng Jiang <jiasheng@xxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue Dec 6 15:48:19 2022 +0800 drm/msm/mdp5: Add check for kzalloc [ Upstream commit 13fcfcb2a9a4787fe4e49841d728f6f2e9fa6911 ] As kzalloc may fail and return NULL pointer, it should be better to check the return value in order to avoid the NULL pointer dereference. Fixes: 1cff7440a86e ("drm/msm: Convert to using __drm_atomic_helper_crtc_reset() for reset.")
