AI-suggested

A fix has been implemented by moving Packet RAM enablement to runtime power management hooks in the Linux kernel. Users should update to patched kernel versions to resolve this issue. No additional mitigation actions are required beyond applying the official fix.

Description

A vulnerability in the Linux kernel's drm/vc4 HDMI driver was fixed by moving the Packet RAM enablement to the runtime power management hooks. The issue involved the audio infoframe being written before video was restored, causing a kernel warning and potential system instability due to Packet RAM being disabled prematurely. This fix ensures Packet RAM remains enabled appropriately during runtime power management transitions.
