In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/client: Fix memory leak in drm_client_modeset_probe
When a new mode is set to modeset->mode, the previous mode should be freed.
This fixes the following kmemleak report:
drm_mode_duplicate+0x45/0x220 [drm]
drm_client_modeset_probe+0x944/0xf50 [drm]
