Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.16%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: perf/smmuv3: Fix hotplug callback leak in arm_smmu_pmu_init() arm_smmu_pmu_init() won't remove the callback added by cpuhp_setup_state_multi() when platform_driver_register() failed.
