Wupeng Ma 74095bbbb1 VMCI: fix race between vmci_host_setup_notify and vmci_ctx_unset_notify
[ Upstream commit 1bd6406fb5f36c2bb1e96e27d4c3e9f4d09edde4 ]

During our test, it is found that a warning can be trigger in try_grab_folio
as follow:

  ------------[ cut here ]------------

Digging into the source, context->notify_page may init by get_user_pages_fast
and can be seen in vmci_ctx_unset_notify which will try to put_page. However
get_user_pages_fast is not finished here and lead to following
try_grab_folio warning. The race condition is shown as follow:

cpu0			cpu1
vmci_host_do_set_notify
vmci_host_setup_notify
get_user_pages_fast(uva, 1, FOLL_WRITE, &context->notify_page);
lockless_pages_from_mm
gup_pgd_range
gup_huge_pmd  // update &context->notify_page
			vmci_host_do_set_notify
			vmci_ctx_unset_notify
			notify_page = context->notify_page;
			if (notify_page)
			put_page(notify_page);	// page is freed
__gup_longterm_locked
__get_user_pages
follow_trans_huge_pmd
try_grab_folio // warn here

To slove this, use local variable page to make notify_page can be seen
after finish get_user_pages_fast.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
