Does it? I see this:

static void amdgpu_hmm_mirror_release(struct hmm_mirror *mirror)
{
        struct amdgpu_mn *amn = container_of(mirror, struct amdgpu_mn, mirror);

        INIT_WORK(&amn->work, amdgpu_mn_destroy);
        schedule_work(&amn->work);
}

static struct hmm_mirror_ops amdgpu_hmm_mirror_ops[] = {
        [AMDGPU_MN_TYPE_GFX] = {
                .sync_cpu_device_pagetables = amdgpu_mn_sync_pagetables_gfx,
                .release = amdgpu_hmm_mirror_release
        },
        [AMDGPU_MN_TYPE_HSA] = {
                .sync_cpu_device_pagetables = amdgpu_mn_sync_pagetables_hsa,
                .release = amdgpu_hmm_mirror_release
        },
};


Am I looking at the wrong thing? Looks like it calls it through a work
queue should should be OK..

Though very strange that amdgpu only destroys the mirror via release,
that cannot be right.
