### Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:drm/amdgpu: Fix the memory allocation issue in amdgpu_discovery_get_nps_info()Fix two issues with memory allocation in amdgpu_discovery_get_nps_info()for mem_ranges: - Add a check for allocation failure to avoid dereferencing a null   pointer. - As suggested by Christophe, use kvcalloc() for memory allocation,   which checks for multiplication overflow.Additionally, assign the output parameters nps_type and range_cnt afterthe kvcalloc() call to prevent modifying the output parameters in caseof an error return.
