Description
A vulnerability in the Linux kernel's drm/nouveau/gsp component was fixed by adding SEC2 to the GA100 chip table. The issue caused a NULL pointer dereference during GSP-RM boot due to the absence of the .sec2 entry, which is required for accessing the SEC2 falcon. This flaw could cause a crash during initialization on affected versions.
