From: Jason Gunthorpe <jgg@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
hmm_release() is called exactly once per hmm. ops->release() cannot
accidentally trigger any action that would recurse back onto
hmm->mirrors_sem.
This fixes a use after-free race of the form:
CPU0 CPU1
hmm_release()
up_write(&hmm->mirrors_sem);
hmm_mirror_unregister(mirror)
down_write(&hmm->mirrors_sem);
up_write(&hmm->mirrors_sem);
kfree(mirror)
mirror->ops->release(mirror)
The only user we have today for ops->release is an empty function, so this
is unambiguously safe.
As a consequence of plugging this race drivers are not allowed to
register/unregister mirrors from within a release op.
