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

drm/virtio: fix object leaks in virtio_gpu_resource_create_blob_ioctl()

virtio_gpu_resource_create_blob_ioctl() calls drm_gem_object_release() on
both the virtio_gpu_resource_assign_uuid() and drm_gem_handle_create()
error paths instead of dropping the reference it owns, so
obj->funcs->free() never runs and the virtio_gpu_object, the resource id
and the host-side resource are leaked.

Use drm_gem_object_put() instead.
