Subject[PATCH 4.10 64/81] drm/i915/kvmgt: Hold struct kvm reference
Date
4.10-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Alex Williamson <alex.williamson@redhat.com>

commit 93a15b58cfb8a24e666ffca432f19fe65c1cd7d1 upstream.

The kvmgt code keeps a pointer to the struct kvm associated with the
device, but doesn't actually hold a reference to it. If we do unclean
shutdown testing (ie. killing the user process), then we can see the
kvm association to the device unset, which causes kvmgt to trigger a
device release via a work queue. Naturally we cannot guarantee that
the cached struct kvm pointer is still valid at this point without
holding a reference. The observed failure in this case is a stuck
cpu trying to acquire the spinlock from the invalid reference, but
other failure modes are clearly possible. Hold a reference to avoid
this.
