Subject: CVE-2025-40152: drm/msm: Fix bootup splat with separate_gpu_drm modparam

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

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

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

drm/msm: Fix bootup splat with separate_gpu_drm modparam

The drm_gem_for_each_gpuvm_bo() call from lookup_vma() accesses
drm_gem_obj.gpuva.list, which is not initialized when the drm driver
does not support DRIVER_GEM_GPUVA feature. Enable it for msm_kms
drm driver to fix the splat seen when msm.separate_gpu_drm=1 modparam
is set:

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:
	https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/87aff6d08f3b13bfad66df7c13af5f3a3548d5b9
