From: Maor Gottlieb <maorg@mellanox.com>
[ Upstream commit 22c3653d04bd0c67b75e99d85e0c0bdf83947df5 ]
When the driver disassociate user context, it changes the vma to anonymous by setting the vm_ops to null and zap the vma ptes.
In order to avoid race in the kernel, we need to take write lock before we change the vma entries.
