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

drm/amdgpu/pm: fix the null pointer while the smu is disabled

It needs to check if the pp_funcs is initialized while release the
context, otherwise it will trigger null pointer panic while the software
smu is not enabled.
