CVE-2023-53678 (published 2025-10-07 16:15:51.917000+00:00)
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

drm/i915: Fix system suspend without fbdev being initialized

If fbdev is not initialized for some reason - in practice on platforms
without display - suspending fbdev should be skipped during system
suspend, fix this up. While at it add an assert that suspending fbdev
only happens with the display present.

This fixes the following:
