This series aims to fix a number of page reference counting issues in drivers dealing with device private ZONE_DEVICE pages. These result in use-after-free type bugs, either from accessing a struct page which no longer exists because it has been removed or accessing fields within the struct page which are no longer valid because the page has been freed. During normal usage it is unlikely these will cause any problems. However without these fixes it is possible to crash the kernel from userspace. These crashes can be triggered either by unloading the kernel module or unbinding the device from the driver prior to a userspace task exiting. In modules such as Nouveau it is also possible to trigger some of these issues by explicitly closing the device file-descriptor prior to the task exiting and then accessing device private memory. This involves some minor changes to both PowerPC and AMD GPU code. Unfortunately I lack hardware to test either of those so any help there would be appreciated. The changes mimic what is done in for both Nouveau and hmm-tests though so I doubt they will cause problems.
