[PATCH 6.6] iommu/sva: move x86 disable check before allocation

[PATCH 6.6] iommu/sva: move x86 disable check before allocation

[albin_yang]

From: Wei Yang <albinwyang@tencent.com>

Backport of commit 72f98ef9a4be ("iommu: disable SVA when CONFIG_X86 is
set") placed the IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_X86) early-return in
iommu_sva_bind_device() after iommu_sva_alloc_pasid() and kzalloc(handle),
while upstream puts it at the function start.

On x86 this leaks the kzalloc'd struct iommu_sva (early return skips
kfree) and a globally allocated PASID (mm->pasid wrongly set, never
unbound). Move the check before any allocation/side effect.

Fixes: 240cd7f2812c ("iommu: disable SVA when CONFIG_X86 is set")

Signed-off-by: Wei Yang <albinwyang@tencent.com>

This is a stable-only fix for the linux-6.6.y tree.

The buggy commit 240cd7f2812c ("iommu: disable SVA when CONFIG_X86 is set")
is a backport of upstream commit 72f98ef9a4be ("iommu: disable SVA when
CONFIG_X86 is set") to 6.6. The upstream version places the
IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_X86) early-return at the start of iommu_sva_bind_device(),
but the 6.6 backport placed it after iommu_sva_alloc_pasid() and
kzalloc(handle), causing the leak described above. The upstream/mainline
code is correct, so this fix is not needed there and only applies to 6.6.

Please double-check against upstream commit 72f98ef9a4be before applying.

An ack from one of the maintainers would be appreciated on this.

Thanks for the ack.

Queued for 6.6, thanks.
