Subject: CVE-2024-27037: clk: zynq: Prevent null pointer dereference caused by kmalloc failure

Description
===========

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

clk: zynq: Prevent null pointer dereference caused by kmalloc failure

The kmalloc() in zynq_clk_setup() will return null if the
physical memory has run out. As a result, if we use snprintf()
to write data to the null address, the null pointer dereference
bug will happen.

This patch uses a stack variable to replace the kmalloc().

The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2024-27037 to this issue.

Mitigation
==========

The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest
stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes.  Individual
changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel
release.  Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or
supported by the Linux kernel community at all.  If however, updating to
the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this
issue can be found at these commits:
