Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amd/display: Pass non-null to dcn20_validate_apply_pipe_split_flags
[WHAT & HOW]
"dcn20_validate_apply_pipe_split_flags" dereferences merge, and thus it
cannot be a null pointer. Let's pass a valid pointer to avoid null
dereference.
This fixes 2 FORWARD_NULL issues reported by Coverity.
Affected configurations
• linux linux kernel (< 6.10.14)
• linux linux kernel (>= 6.11 < 6.11.3)
