4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Jordan Crouse <jcrouse@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 90dd57de4a043f642179b1323a31ca3ced826611 ] Amongst its other duties, msm_gem_new_impl adds the newly created GEM object to the shared inactive list which may also be actively modifiying the list during submission. All the paths to modify the list are protected by the mutex except for the one through msm_gem_import which can end up causing list corruption.
