Linux Kernel Memory Leak Vulnerability in DRM IMX Component

A memory leak vulnerability has been identified in the Linux kernel's DRM IMX component. The issue arises in the 'imx_pd_connector_get_modes' function, where the display mode variable is not properly released if the 'of_get_drm_display_mode' function fails. This oversight leads to a resource leak, as noted by a Coverity analysis.

Impact

Exploitation of this vulnerability causes a memory leak, which can lead to increased memory usage and potential degradation of system performance over time.
