Clang found this bug, run command like this:
scan-build  --use-cc=clang    make CC=clang 
drivers/gpu/drm/panthor/panthor_drv.o

There will be some warnings, one is this:
drivers/gpu/drm/panthor/panthor_drv.c:807:22: warning: The left 
expression of the compound
assignment is an uninitialized value. The computed value will also be 
garbage [core.uninitialized.Assign]
   807 |                         arg->allowed_mask |= BIT(prio);
       |                         ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ^
