drm/amdkfd: Fix lock dependency warning
[ Upstream commit 47bf0f83fc86df1bf42b385a91aadb910137c5c9 ]
======================================================
WARNING: possible circular locking dependency detected
6.5.0-kfd-fkuehlin #276 Not tainted

kworker/8:2/2676 is trying to acquire lock:

but task is already holding lock:
ffff9435cd8e1720 (&svms->lock){+.+.}-{3:3}, at: svm_range_deferred_list_work+0xe8/0x340 [amdgpu]
which lock already depends on the new lock.

other info that might help us debug this:
Chain exists of:
(work_completion)(&svm_bo->eviction_work) --> &mm->mmap_lock --> &svms->lock
Possible unsafe locking scenario:
CPU0 CPU1
---- ----
lock(&svms->lock);
lock(&mm->mmap_lock);
lock(&svms->lock);
lock((work_completion)(&svm_bo->eviction_work));
I believe this cannot really lead to a deadlock in practice, because
svm_range_evict_svm_bo_worker only takes the mmap_read_lock if the BO
refcount is non-0. That means it's impossible that svm_range_bo_release
is running concurrently. However, there is no good way to annotate this.
To avoid the problem, take a BO reference in
svm_range_schedule_evict_svm_bo instead of in the worker. That way it's
impossible for a BO to get freed while eviction work is pending and the
cancel_work_sync call in svm_range_bo_release can be eliminated.
v2: Use svm_bo_ref_unless_zero and explained why that's safe. Also
removed redundant checks that are already done in
amdkfd_fence_enable_signaling.
