"The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
UTSA-2025-986744 advisory.

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

    drm/gma500: Fix BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context errors

    gma_crtc_page_flip() was holding the event_lock spinlock while calling
    crtc_funcs->mode_set_base() which takes ww_mutex.

    The only reason to hold event_lock is to clear gma_crtc->page_flip_event
    on mode_set_base() errors.

    Instead unlock it after setting gma_crtc->page_flip_event and on
    errors re-take the lock and clear gma_crtc->page_flip_event it
    it is still set.

    This fixes the following WARN/stacktrace:
