I don't think userspace could hit it because the race is small, it would need to free an object, then immediately try to softpin a new object in the same place.

It could be fixed, but it would require a massive rework of eviction. It could eventually be done, but requires fixing the entire vm locking. I don't think userspace

will hit it, except if it tried deliberately. If it does turn out to be a problem, a workaround would be only calling i915_gem_evict_vm() without locks, so it can call drain_freed_objects as needed. This requires some surgery

to make execbuf handle the case where we may drop all locks when evicting.
