Subject[PATCH] xen mmu: fix a race window causing leave_mm BUG()
Date
From: Tian, Kevin <kevin.tian@intel.com>

There's a race window in xen_drop_mm_ref, where remote cpu may exit
dirty bitmap between the check on this cpu and the point where remote
cpu handles drop request. So in drop_other_mm_ref we need check
whether TLB state is still lazy before calling into leave_mm. This
bug is rarely observed in earlier kernel, but exaggerated by the
commit 831d52bc153971b70e64eccfbed2b232394f22f8
("x86, mm: avoid possible bogus tlb entries by clearing prev mm_cpumask after switching mm")
which clears bitmap after changing the TLB state. the call trace is as below:
