The vc4-pv-muxing-combinations and vc5-pv-muxing-combinations test
suites use a common test init function which, in part, allocates the
drm atomic state the test will use.
That allocation relies on drm_kunit_helper_atomic_state_alloc(), and
thus requires a struct drm_modeset_acquire_ctx. This context will then
be stored in the allocated state->acquire_ctx field.
However, the context is local to the test init function, and is cleared
as soon as drm_kunit_helper_atomic_state_alloc() is done. We thus end up
with an dangling pointer to a cleared context in state->acquire_ctx for
our test to consumes.
We should really allocate the context and the state in the test
functions, so we can also control when we're done with it.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
