* kernel: drm/amdgpu: Fix context pstate override handling (CVE-2026-68273)

* kernel: Linux kernel IPVS: Denial of Service due to stale memory references (CVE-2026-80714)

* kernel: nvme-tcp: fix host memory disclosure on R2T for a read command (CVE-2026-89481)

Bug Fix(es) and Enhancement(s):

* Bypass DMA APIs for coherent allocations for pre-mapped memory [rhel-10.2.z] (JIRA:RHEL-252331)
