  "title": "drm/fb-helper: defer setup when fbdev_probe() fails, not just on -EAGAIN",
  "description": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:  drm/fb-helper: defer setup when fbdev_probe() fails, not just on -EAGAIN  __drm_fb_helper_initial_config_and_unlock() calls drm_client_modeset_probe() first, which already fills in each mode_set-\u003Emode/num_connectors for every connected output, and only afterwards calls drm_fb_helper_single_fb_probe() to create fb_helper-\u003Efb and wire it into those mode_sets via drm_setup_crtcs_fb().  If drm_fb_helper_single_fb_probe() fails with anything other than -EAGAIN (e.g. dev-\u003Edriver-\u003Efbdev_probe() itself fails), the function bails out before drm_setup_crtcs_fb() runs and before setting fb_helper-\u003Edeferred_setup. The client is left with mode_sets that have a mode and connectors but mode_set-\u003Efb == NULL, and nothing marks this fb_helper as needing a retry.  __drm_fb_helper_restore_fbdev_mode_unlocked() only skips committing when fb_helper-\u003Edeferred_setup is set, so a later .restore() call (drm_lastclose() on process exit, in this report) commits the stale mode_set through drm_client_modeset_commit() -\u003E drm_client_modeset_commit_atomic() -\u003E __drm_atomic_helper_set_config(), which hits WARN_ON(!set-\u003Efb).  Mark fb_helper-\u003Edeferred_setup on any drm_fb_helper_single_fb_probe() failure, not just -EAGAIN, so restore keeps skipping the commit until a later hotplug event successfully re-probes and re-populates mode_set-\u003Efb. The real error code is still returned to the caller unchanged.",
