## Overview

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

media: qcom: iris: fix runtime PM reference leaks

Use pm_runtime_resume_and_get() in iris_enable_power_domains()
to avoid leaking a runtime PM usage count on failure.

Also ensure pm_runtime_put_sync() is always called in
iris_disable_power_domains(), even when iris_opp_set_rate()
fails, so runtime PM references remain balanced.

## Affected

- `Linux >= bb8a95aa038e099f5ec82c466e996b006e05abd7 < fff1ae8d0c8c97668e4cbcc6e1fd2cc740013795`
- `Linux >= bb8a95aa038e099f5ec82c466e996b006e05abd7 < 7a52e76b63095e05d92f15f16f45421cab9789e1`
- `Linux >= bb8a95aa038e099f5ec82c466e996b006e05abd7 < f87d7eda07fca21efe4b96169ae59007db46e60e`
- `Linux 6.15`
