## Overview

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

drm/amdgpu/vcn: set no_user_fence for VCN v3.0 enc/dec rings

VCN encoder and decoder rings do not support 64-bit user fence writes,
reject CS submissions with user fences.

(cherry picked from commit 663bed3c7b8b9a7624b0d95d300ddae034ad0614)
