Subject: CVE-2024-36969: drm/amd/display: Fix division by zero in setup_dsc_config

Description
===========

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

drm/amd/display: Fix division by zero in setup_dsc_config

When slice_height is 0, the division by slice_height in the calculation
of the number of slices will cause a division by zero driver crash. This
leaves the kernel in a state that requires a reboot. This patch adds a
check to avoid the division by zero.

The stack trace below is for the 6.8.4 Kernel. I reproduced the issue on
a Z16 Gen 2 Lenovo Thinkpad with a Apple Studio Display monitor
connected via Thunderbolt. The amdgpu driver crashed with this exception
when I rebooted the system with the monitor connected.

kernel: ? die (arch/x86/kernel/dumpstack.c:421 arch/x86/kernel/dumpstack.c:434 arch/x86/kernel/dumpstack.c:447)
kernel: ? do_trap (arch/x86/kernel/traps.c:113 arch/x86/kernel/traps.c:154)
kernel: ? setup_dsc_config (drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/../display/dc/dsc/dc_dsc.c:1053) amdgpu
kernel: ? do_error_trap (./arch/x86/include/asm/traps.h:58 arch/x86/kernel/traps.c:175)
kernel: ? setup_dsc_config (drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/../display/dc/dsc/dc_dsc.c:1053) amdgpu
kernel: ? exc_divide_error (arch/x86/kernel/traps.c:194 (discriminator 2))
kernel: ? setup_dsc_config (drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/../display/dc/dsc/dc_dsc.c:1053) amdgpu
kernel: ? asm_exc_divide_error (./arch/x86/include/asm/idtentry.h:548)
kernel: ? setup_dsc_config (drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/../display/dc/dsc/dc_dsc.c:1053) amdgpu
kernel: dc_dsc_compute_config (drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/../display/dc/dsc/dc_dsc.c:1109) amdgpu

After applying this patch, the driver no longer crashes when the monitor
is connected and the system is rebooted. I believe this is the same
issue reported for 3113.

The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2024-36969 to this issue.

Mitigation
==========

The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest
stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes.  Individual
changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel
release.  Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or
supported by the Linux kernel community at all.  If however, updating to
the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this
issue can be found at these commits:
