Does this issue reproduce on mainline? Thanks,
I have check the code of mainline, the logical seems the same as my
version.
so I think it can reproduce if i understand correctly.
I obviously can't speak to what's in your 5.10.134-008.2 kernel, but I
do know there's a very similar issue resolved in v6.0 mainline and
included in v5.10.146 of the stable tree. Please test. Thanks,

vfio/type1: Unpin zero pages
There's currently a reference count leak on the zero page. We increment
the reference via pin_user_pages_remote(), but the page is later handled
as an invalid/reserved page, therefore it's not accounted against the
user and not unpinned by our put_pfn().
Introducing special zero page handling in put_pfn() would resolve the
leak, but without accounting of the zero page, a single user could
still create enough mappings to generate a reference count overflow.
The zero page is always resident, so for our purposes there's no reason
to keep it pinned. Therefore, add a loop to walk pages returned from
pin_user_pages_remote() and unpin any zero pages.
BUT
in the meantime, we also have

mm: Don't pin ZERO_PAGE in pin_user_pages()
Make pin_user_pages*() leave a ZERO_PAGE unpinned if it extracts a pointer
to it from the page tables and make unpin_user_page*() correspondingly
ignore a ZERO_PAGE when unpinning. We don't want to risk overrunning a
zero page's refcount as we're only allowed ~2 million pins on it -
something that userspace can conceivably trigger.
Add a pair of functions to test whether a page or a folio is a ZERO_PAGE.
So the unpin_user_page_* won't do anything with the shared zeropage.
(likely, we could revert 873aefb376bbc0ed1dd2381ea1d6ec88106fdbd4)
