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

media: nxp: imx8-isi: m2m: Fix streaming cleanup on release

If streamon/streamoff calls are imbalanced, such as when exiting an
application with Ctrl+C when streaming, the m2m usage_count will never
reach zero and the ISI channel won't be freed. Besides from that, if the
input line width is more than 2K, it will trigger a WARN_ON():

Address this issue by moving the streaming preparation and cleanup to
the vb2 .prepare_streaming() and .unprepare_streaming() operations. This
also simplifies the driver by allowing direct usage of the
v4l2_m2m_ioctl_streamon() and v4l2_m2m_ioctl_streamoff() helpers.
