[PATCH 027/115] gpu: ion: Fix race between ion_import and ion_free

From: John Stultz
Date: Fri Dec 13 2013 - 17:44:20 EST


From: Rebecca Schultz Zavin <rebecca@xxxxxxxxxxx>

If preemted during ion_free after the refcount is updated but
before the handle can be removed from the rb_tree, import
might find that handle in the tree and try to reuse it
when execution returns to free, the handle will be cleaned
up leaving the caller of import with a corrupt handle.
This patch modifies the locking to protect agains this race.
