In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/rockchip: dw_dp: Release core resources
Core resources such as the DisplayPort AUX channel get initialized and registered during dw_dp_bind(), but are never unregistered, which may lead to memory leaks and/or use-after-free:

Since a previous commit exported dw_dp_unbind() function in DW DP core library to take care of the necessary cleanup, use this in the component's unbind() callback, as well as in its bind() error path.
