Summary
Updated kernel packages fix security vulnerability
Details

This kernel update is based on upstream 5.10.14 and fixes at least the following security issues:

A local privilege escalation was discovered in the Linux kernel before 5.10.13. Multiple race conditions in the AFVSOCK implementation are caused by wrong locking in net/vmwvsock/af_vsock.c (CVE-2021-26708).

It also adds the following fixes: - make CONNECTOR builtin to enable PROCEVENTS (mga#28312) - drm/amd/display: Revert "Fix EDID parsing after resume from suspend" - drm/amdgpu: fix the issue that retry constantly once the buffer is oversize - drm/amdgpu: set default value of noretry to 1 for vega10 - drm/amdgpu: default noretry=0 for navi1x and newer - drm/amdkfd: fix null pointer panic while free buffer in kfd - mm: thp: fix MADVREMOVE deadlock on shmem THP

For other upstream fixes, see the referenced changelogs.
