What to do

AI-suggested

A fix has been implemented in the Linux kernel to properly unregister fixed rate clocks in the macb driver. Users should update to the fixed kernel version once available to remediate this issue.

Description

A resource management vulnerability in the Linux kernel's macb network driver was fixed by ensuring that fixed rate clocks registered with clk_register_fixed_rate() are properly unregistered with clk_unregister_fixed_rate(). Failure to unregister these clocks could lead to resource leaks.
