Subject: CVE-2023-53249: clk: imx: clk-imx8mn: fix memory leak in imx8mn_clocks_probe

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@...nel.org>

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

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

clk: imx: clk-imx8mn: fix memory leak in imx8mn_clocks_probe

Use devm_of_iomap() instead of of_iomap() to automatically handle
the unused ioremap region.

If any error occurs, regions allocated by kzalloc() will leak,
but using devm_kzalloc() instead will automatically free the memory
using devm_kfree().

The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2023-53249 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:
