Title
drm/xe: Fix vm_bind_ioctl double free bug
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/xe: Fix vm_bind_ioctl double free bug
If the argument check during an array bind fails, the bind_ops are freed
twice as seen below. Fix this by setting bind_ops to NULL after freeing.

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the
vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base
model, served locally by ML-Gateway.
They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
