[PATCH 5.5 40/80] drm/vgem: Close use-after-free race in vgem_gem_create

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman

commit 4b848f20eda5974020f043ca14bacf7a7e634fc8 upstream.

There's two references floating around here (for the object reference,
not the handle_count reference, that's a different thing):

- The temporary reference held by vgem_gem_create, acquired by
creating the object and released by calling
drm_gem_object_put_unlocked.

- The reference held by the object handle, created by
drm_gem_handle_create. This one generally outlives the function,
except if a 2nd thread races with a GEM_CLOSE ioctl call.

So usually everything is correct, except in that race case, where the
access to gem_object->size could be looking at freed data already.
Which again isn't a real problem (userspace shot its feet off already
with the race, we could return garbage), but maybe someone can exploit
this as an information leak.
