Both dma_buf_get_attachment and dma_buf_attach has mutet with
dmabuf->lock, and dma_buf_get_attachment is used for get attachment from
same device before calling dma_buf_attach.

While, dma_buf_detach can removes attachment because it does not have
ref count. So importer should check ref count in its importer private
data before calling dma_buf_detach if the importer want to use
dma_buf_get_attachment.

And dma_buf_get_attachment is for the importer, so exporter attach and
detach callback operation should not call it as like exporter detach
callback operation should not call dma_buf_attach if you mean this kind
of race.

If you have other considerations here, please describe more specifically.

Thanks and Best Regards,
