Affected: Alpaquita:stream: linux-lts

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

drm/msm: Fix shrinker deadlock

With PROVE_LOCKING on an Snapdragon X1 and VM reclaim pressure, we see:

Ein Angreifer kann mehrere Schwachstellen im Linux Kernel ausnutzen, um einen nicht näher spezifizierten Angriff durchzuführen, möglicherweise Sicherheitsmaßnahmen zu umgehen, einen Denial-of-Service-Zustand herbeizuführen oder vertrauliche Informationen offenzulegen.
