Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

drm/i915/gem: Really move i915_gem_context.link under ref protection

i915_perf assumes that it can use the i915_gem_context reference to
protect its i915->gem.contexts.list iteration. However, this requires
that we do not remove the context from the list until after we drop the
final reference and release the struct. If, as currently, we remove the
context from the list during context_close(), the link.next pointer may
be poisoned while we are holding the context reference and cause a GPF:
