What it is

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

drm/imagination: take paired job reference

For paired jobs, have the fragment job take a reference on the

geometry job, so that the geometry job cannot be freed until

the fragment job has finished with it.

The geometry job structure is accessed when the fragment job is being

prepared by the GPU scheduler. Taking the reference prevents the

geometry job being freed until the fragment job no longer requires it.

Fixes a use after free bug detected by KASAN:
