we found this issue but still exit in lastest kernel. Simply
keep ion_handle_create under mutex_lock to avoid this race.

So the patch looks correct but the locking change there seems like it was
added
deliberately. Colin/John, do you remember why the locking for
ion_import_dma_buf
changed? Was there a deadlock condition somewhere?

Thanks,
Laura

I can't see any reason to not hold the mutex across ion_handle_create.
The patch that introduced the bug
(83271f6262c91a49df325c52bec8f00f4de294ca, ion: hold reference to
handle after ion_uhandle_get) required that the mutex not be held
around the call to ion_handle_put, but didn't affect
ion_handle_create.

Thanks for confirming. With that,
