[PATCH 03/11] intel-iommu: Fix AB-BA lockdep report

From: Roland Dreier <roland@purestorage.com>

When unbinding a device so that I could pass it through to a KVM VM, I
got the lockdep report below.  It looks like a legitimate lock
ordering problem:

 - domain_context_mapping_one() takes iommu->lock and calls
   iommu_support_dev_iotlb(), which takes device_domain_lock (inside
   iommu->lock).

 - domain_remove_one_dev_info() starts by taking device_domain_lock
   then takes iommu->lock inside it (near the end of the function).

So this is the classic AB-BA deadlock.  It looks like a safe fix is to
simply release device_domain_lock a bit earlier, since as far as I can
tell, it doesn't protect any of the stuff accessed at the end of
domain_remove_one_dev_info() anyway.

BTW, the use of device_domain_lock looks a bit unsafe to me... it's
at least not obvious to me why we aren't vulnerable to the race below:

  iommu_support_dev_iotlb()
                                          domain_remove_dev_info()

  lock device_domain_lock
    find info
  unlock device_domain_lock

                                          lock device_domain_lock
                                            find same info
                                          unlock device_domain_lock

                                          free_devinfo_mem(info)

  do stuff with info after it's free

However I don't understand the locking here well enough to know if
this is a real problem, let alone what the best fix is.

Anyway here's the full lockdep output that prompted all of this:
