So basically that was to protect exec when it takes the notifier lock
in read mode, and checks that there are no invalidated userptr, that
needs to stay true as lock as the notifier lock is held.
But as MBrost pointed out, the vm lock is also held, so I think the
kerneldoc should be updated so that the requirement is that either the
notifier lock is held in write mode, or the vm lock in write mode.
As a general comment these locking protection docs are there to
simplify reading and writing of the code so that when new code is
written and reviewed, we should just keep to the rules to avoid
auditing all locations in the driver where the protected data-structure
is touched. If we want to update those docs I think a complete such
audit needs to be done and all use-cases are understood.
