Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: i2c: hi846: Fix memory leak in hi846_parse_dt()
If any of the checks related to the supported link frequencies fail, then
the V4L2 fwnode resources don't get released before returning, which leads
to a memleak. Fix this by properly freeing the V4L2 fwnode data in a
designated label.
