This was always true here, though, so long as the umem_odp exists the
the mm has a grab on it. But a grab is not a get..
The point here was the old code needed an mmget() in order to do
get_user_pages_remote()
If hmm does not need an external mmget() then fine, we delete this
stuff and rely on hmm.
But I don't think that is true as we have:
CPU 0 CPU1
mmput()
__mmput()
exit_mmap()
down_read(&mm->mmap_sem);
hmm_range_dma_map(range, device,..
ret = hmm_range_fault(range, block);
if (hmm->mm == NULL || hmm->dead)
mmu_notifier_release()
hmm->dead = true
vma = find_vma(hmm->mm, start);
.. rb traversal .. while (vma) remove_vma()
*goes boom*
I think this is violating the basic constraint of the mm by acting on
a mm's VMA's without holding a mmget() to prevent concurrent
destruction.
In other words, mmput() destruction does not respect the mmap_sem - so
holding the mmap sem alone is not enough locking.
The unlucked hmm->dead simply can't save this. Frankly every time I
look a struct with 'dead' in it, I find races like this.
Thus we should put the mmget_notzero back in.
I saw some other funky looking stuff in hmm as well..

Yes, that certainly wasn't good.

I think you need to have a better name then
