## Overview

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

drm/msm/adreno: fix use after free on error path in a6xx_gpu_init()

The a6xx_destroy() function frees "a6xx_gpu" and so "adreno_gpu" points
to freed memory.  Preserve the error code before freeing the memory to
avoid a use after free.
