CVE-2025-68180 drm/amd/display: Fix NULL deref in debugfs odm_combine_segments
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

drm/amd/display: Fix NULL deref in debugfs odm_combine_segments

When a connector is connected but inactive (e.g., disabled by desktop
environments), pipe_ctx->stream_res.tg will be destroyed. Then, reading
odm_combine_segments causes kernel NULL pointer dereference.

 BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000000
