Affected: Linux

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

drm/i915/gt: Fix timeline left held on VMA alloc error

The following error has been reported sporadically by CI when a test unbinds the i915 driver on a ring submission platform:

If the test also unloads the i915 module then that's followed with:
