[Mesa-stable] [PATCH] nouveau: Use dup fd as key in drm-winsys hash table to fix ZaphodHeads.

The dup'ed fd owned by the nouveau_screen for a device node
must also be used as key for the winsys hash table, instead
of using the original fd passed in for a screen, to make
multi-x-screen ZaphodHeads configurations work on nouveau.
This prevents the following crash scenario that was observed
when a dynamically loaded rendering plugin used OpenGL on a
ZaphodHeads setup, e.g., on a dual x-screen setup. At first
load the plugin worked, but after unloading and reloading it,
the next rendering operation crashed:
1. Client, e.g., a plugin, calls glXQueryVersion.
2. DRI screens for the x-screens 0 and 1 are created, one shared
nouveau_screen is created for the shared device node of both
screens, but the original fd of x-screen 0 is used as identifying
key in the hash table, instead of the dup()ed fd of x-screen 0
which is owned by the nouveau_screen. nouveau_screen's refcount
is now 2.
3. Regular rendering happens by the client plugin, then the plugin
gets unloaded.
4. XCloseDisplay(). x-screen 0 gets its DRI screen destroyed,
nouveau_drm_screen_unref() drops the refcount to 1, calling mesa
code then closes the fd of x-screen 0, so now the fd which is
used as key in the hash table is invalid. x-screen 1 gets
destroyed, nouveau_drm_screen_unref() drops the refcount to 0,
the nouveau_screen gets destroyed, but removal of its entry
in the hash table fails, because the invalid fd in the hash
table no longer matches anything (fstat() on the fd is used
for hashing and key comparison, but fstat() on an already closed
fd fails and returns bogus results). x-screen 1 closes its fd.
Now all fd's are closed, the nouveau_screen destroyed, but
there is a dangling reference to the nouveau_screen in the
hash table.
5. Some OpenGL client plugin gets loaded again and calls
glXQueryVersion. Step 2 above repeats, but because a
dangling reference with a matching fd is found in the winsys
hash table, no new nouveau_screen is created this time. Instead
the invalid pointer to the old nouveau_screen is recycled,
which points to nirvana -> Crash.
This problem is avoided by use of the dup()ed fd which is
owned by the nouveau_screen and has the same lifetime as
the nouveau_screen itself.
