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

iommu/arm-smmu: Fix arm_smmu_device refcount leak in address translation

The reference counting issue happens in several exception handling paths

of arm_smmu_iova_to_phys_hard(). When those error scenarios occur, the

function forgets to decrease the refcount of "smmu" increased by

arm_smmu_rpm_get(), causing a refcount leak.

Fix this issue by jumping to "out" label when those error scenarios

occur.
