Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iommufd: Fix protection fault in iommufd_test_syz_conv_iova
Syzkaller reported the following bug:
general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0xdffffc0000000038: 0000 [#1] SMP KASAN
KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x00000000000001c0-0x00000000000001c7]
Call Trace:
lock_acquire

This is because the new iommufd_access_change_ioas() sets access->ioas to
NULL during its process, so the lock might be gone in a concurrent racing
context.
Fix this by doing the same access->ioas sanity as iommufd_access_rw() and
iommufd_access_pin_pages() functions do.
