What it is

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

ASoC: amd: acp3x-rt5682-max9836: Add missing error check for clock acquisition

The acp3x_5682_init() function did not check the return value of

clk_get(), which could lead to dereferencing error pointers in

rt5682_clk_enable().

Fix this by:

1. Changing clk_get() to the device-managed devm_clk_get().

2. Adding proper IS_ERR() checks for both clock acquisitions.
