> After 51cdc8bc120e, we have another deadlock scenario between the
> kvm->lock and the vfio group_lock with two different codepaths acquiring
> the locks in different order. Specifically in vfio_open_device, vfio
> holds the vfio group_lock when issuing device->ops->open_device but
> some
> drivers (like vfio-ap) need to acquire kvm->lock during their open_device
> routine; Meanwhile, kvm_vfio_release will acquire the kvm->lock first
> before calling vfio_file_set_kvm which will acquire the vfio group_lock.
>
> To resolve this, let's remove the need for the vfio group_lock from the
> kvm_vfio_release codepath. This is done by introducing a new spinlock to
> protect modifications to the vfio group kvm pointer, and acquiring a kvm
> ref from within vfio while holding this spinlock, with the reference held
> until the last close for the device in question.

Can "device->put_kvm = NULL;" be part of vfio_kvm_put_kvm()?
