The patch below does not apply to the 6.12-stable tree.
If someone wants it applied there, or to any other stable or longterm
tree, then please email the backport, including the original git commit
id to <stable@vger.kernel.org>.
To reproduce the conflict and resubmit, you may use the following commands:

Subject: [PATCH] drm/msm/dsi: Fix VM leak in dsi_tx_buf_alloc_6g()
dsi_tx_buf_alloc_6g() takes a reference to the kms VM with
drm_gpuvm_get() and stores it in msm_host->vm. If
msm_gem_kernel_new() fails, the function returns early without
dropping that reference. Since msm_host->tx_gem_obj is cleared on
the error path, msm_dsi_tx_buf_free() will never see a non-NULL
tx_gem_obj and thus never calls drm_gpuvm_put(), leaking the VM
reference.
Drop the VM reference and clear msm_host->vm on the error path.
