Subject: CVE-2024-26894: ACPI: processor_idle: Fix memory leak in acpi_processor_power_exit()

Description
===========

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

ACPI: processor_idle: Fix memory leak in acpi_processor_power_exit()

After unregistering the CPU idle device, the memory associated with
it is not freed, leading to a memory leak:

unreferenced object 0xffff896282f6c000 (size 1024):

Fix this by freeing the CPU idle device after unregistering it.

The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2024-26894 to this issue.

Mitigation
==========

The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest
stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes.  Individual
changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel
release.  Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or
supported by the Linux kernel community at all.  If however, updating to
the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this
issue can be found at these commits:
