5.5 - CVE-2024-50156

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

drm/msm: Avoid NULL dereference in msm_disp_state_print_regs()

If the allocation in msm_disp_state_dump_regs() failed then `block->state` can be NULL. The msm_disp_state_print_regs() function _does_ have code to try to handle it with:

if (*reg)
dump_addr = *reg;

...but since "dump_addr" is initialized to NULL the above is actually a noop. The code then goes on to dereference `dump_addr`.

Make the function print "Registers not stored" when it sees a NULL to solve this. Since we're touching the code, fix msm_disp_state_print_regs() not to pointlessly take a double-pointer and properly mark the pointer as `const`.
