CVE-2024-36959 Information

Description

In the Linux kernel the following vulnerability has been resolved:

pinctrl: devicetree: fix refcount leak in pinctrl_dt_to_map()

If we fail to allocate propname buffer we need to drop the reference count we just took. Because the pinctrl_dt_free_maps() includes the droping operation here we call it directly.
