Linux kernel source tree
7a425ec75d
The owner object of the imap can be destroyed while the imap remains in
the mtree. So access to the imap pointer without holding locks is racy
with destruction.
The imap is safe to access outside the lock once a users refcount is
obtained, the owner object cannot start destruction until users is 0.
Thus the users refcount should not be obtained at the end of
iommufd_fops_mmap() but instead inside the mtree lock held around the
mtree_load(). Move the refcount there and use refcount_inc_not_zero() as
we can have a 0 refcount inside the mtree during destruction races.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
