[PATCH 4.12 122/196] drm/i915/gvt: Fix inconsistent locks holding sequence

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Tue Jul 25 2017 - 15:24:56 EST


4.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Chuanxiao Dong <chuanxiao.dong@xxxxxxxxx>

commit f16bd3dda2c8bf6699e808cd9cc540cfab10e60e upstream.

There are two kinds of locking sequence.

One is in the thread which is started by vfio ioctl to do
the iommu unmapping. The locking sequence is:
down_read(&group_lock) ----> mutex_lock(&cached_lock)

The other is in the vfio release thread which will unpin all
the cached pages. The lock sequence is:
mutex_lock(&cached_lock) ---> down_read(&group_lock)

And, the cache_lock is used to protect the rb tree of the cache
node and doing vfio unpin doesn't require this lock. Move the
vfio unpin out of the cache_lock protected region.

v2:
- use for style instead of do{}while(1). (Zhenyu)
