CVE-2026-68378

EUVD-2026-55564
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

dpll: fix NULL pointer dereference in dpll_msg_add_pin_ref_sync()

When a dpll_pin is shared across multiple dpll_device instances and
those devices are being unregistered (e.g. during driver module removal),
a NULL pointer dereference can occur in dpll_msg_add_pin_ref_sync().

This happens under the following conditions:
 - A pin is registered with two or more dpll devices (dpll_A, dpll_B)
 - The pin has ref_sync pairs with other pins
 - During unregistration of dpll_A's pins, a ref_sync partner pin is
   unregistered first, removing it from dpll_A->pin_refs
 - But since the partner pin is still registered with dpll_B, its
   dpll_refs is not empty, so dpll_pin_ref_sync_pair_del() does NOT
   run and the partner stays in the pin's ref_sync_pins xarray
 - When the pin itself is then unregistered from dpll_A, the delete
   notification calls dpll_msg_add_pin_ref_sync() which finds the
   partner in ref_sync_pins, passes dpll_pin_available() (partner is
   still registered with dpll_B), but dpll_pin_on_dpll_priv(dpll_A,
   partner) returns NULL because partner was already removed from
   dpll_A->pin_refs
 - The NULL priv pointer is passed to the driver's ref_sync_get
   callback, which dereferences it

Fix this by skipping ref_sync pins whose priv pointer cannot be resolved
for the current dpll device.
