Summary

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

drm/amd/display: check stream id dml21 wrapper to get plane_id

[Why & How] Fix a false positive warning which occurs due to lack of correct checks when querying plane_id in DML21. This fixes the warning when performing a mode1 reset (cat /sys/kernel/debug/dri/1/amdgpu_gpu_recover):
