    xen/gntdev: Fix circular locking dependency · f0a70c88
    Daniel De Graaf authored
    apply_to_page_range will acquire PTE lock while priv->lock is held,
    and mn_invl_range_start tries to acquire priv->lock with PTE already
    held.  Fix by not holding priv->lock during the entire map operation.
    This is safe because map->vma is set nonzero while the lock is held,
    which will cause subsequent maps to fail and will cause the unmap
    ioctl (and other users of gntdev_del_map) to return -EBUSY until the
    area is unmapped. It is similarly impossible for gntdev_vma_close to
    be called while the vma is still being created.
