Currently, drm_file.master pointers should be protected by
drm_device.master_mutex when being dereferenced. This is because
drm_file.master is not invariant for the lifetime of drm_file. If
drm_file is not the creator of master, then drm_file.is_master is
false, and a call to drm_setmaster_ioctl will invoke
drm_new_set_master, which then allocates a new master for drm_file and
puts the old master.
Thus, without holding drm_device.master_mutex, the old value of
drm_file.master could be freed while it is being used by another
concurrent process.
However, it is not always possible to lock drm_device.master_mutex to
dereference drm_file.master. Through the fbdev emulation code, this
might occur in a deep nest of other locks. But drm_device.master_mutex
is also the outermost lock in the nesting hierarchy, so this leads to
potential deadlocks.
To address this, we introduce a new spin lock at the bottom of the
lock hierarchy that only serializes drm_file.master. With this change,
the value of drm_file.master changes only when both
drm_device.master_mutex and drm_file.master_lookup_lock are
held. Hence, any process holding either of those locks can ensure that
the value of drm_file.master will not change concurrently.
Since no lock depends on the new drm_file.master_lookup_lock, when
drm_file.master is dereferenced, but drm_device.master_mutex cannot be
held, we can safely protect the master pointer with
drm_file.master_lookup_lock.
