In vma destruction, the following race may occur: Thread 1: Thread 2: i915_vma_destroy(); ... list_del_init(vma->vm_link); ... mutex_unlock(vma->vm->mutex); __i915_vm_release(); release_references(); And in release_reference() we dereference vma->vm to get to the vm gt pointer, leadin go a use-after free. However, __i915_vm_release() grabs the vm->mutex so the vm won't be destroyed before vma->vm->mutex is released, so extract the gt pointer under the vm->mutex to avoid the vma->vm dereference in release_references().
