Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amd/display: Handle null stream_status in planes_changed_for_existing_stream This commit adds a null check for stream_status in the function planes_changed_for_existing_stream. Previously, the code assumed stream_status could be null, but did not handle the case where it was actually null. This could lead to a null pointer dereference. Reported by smatch: drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/../display/dc/core/dc_resource.c:3784 planes_changed_for_existing_stream() error: we previously assumed stream_status could be null (see line 3774)
