Doc Text:	A flaw was found in the `dm1105` PCI driver of the Linux kernel. This issue arises from the driver's failure to properly deallocate resources, specifically a workqueue, when the device is removed. This oversight can lead to a memory leak, which a local attacker could potentially exploit to cause a denial of service (DoS) by exhausting system memory.	Story Points:	---
