[PATCH 7/9] iommu/amd: Don't hold a reference to mm_struct

From: Joerg Roedel
Date: Thu Jul 10 2014 - 09:27:16 EST


From: Joerg Roedel <jroedel@xxxxxxx>

With mmu_notifiers we don't need to hold a reference to the
mm_struct during the time the pasid is bound to a device. We
can rely on the .mn_release call back to inform us when the
mm_struct goes away.
