I suspected it might be this patch so I reverted it, rebuilt the kernel and ran the regression tests again; this time, the test ran cleanly. It looks like this patch may not have fixed the problem for which it was intended. Here is the relevant dmesg output:

Damn it, the config I used to test must not have had lockdep enabled.

It looks like the issue is that .destroy did not used to acquire the kvm lock prior to calling into vfio_file_set_kvm whereas now .release does.  This means .release expects a hierarchy of kvm->lock ...  vfio->group_lock but your .open_device does vfio->group_lock ... kvm->lock.

I can reproduce something similar for vfio_pci_zdev.
