    drm/i915: Fix failure paths around initial fbdev allocation · 51f1385b
    Tvrtko Ursulin 提交于
    We had two failure modes here:
    
    1.
    Deadlock in intelfb_alloc failure path where it calls
    drm_framebuffer_remove, which grabs the struct mutex and intelfb_create
    (caller of intelfb_alloc) was already holding it.
    
    2.
    Deadlock in intelfb_create failure path where it calls
    drm_framebuffer_unreference, which grabs the struct mutex and
    intelfb_create was already holding it.
    
    [Daniel Vetter on why struct_mutex needs to be locked in the second half
    of intelfb_create: "The vma [for the fbdev] is pinned, the problem is
    that we re-lookup it a few times, which is racy. We should instead track
    the vma directly, but oh well we don't."]
    
    v2:
       * Reformat commit msg to 72 chars. (Lukas Wunner)
       * Add third failure mode. (Lukas Wunner)
    
    v5:
       * Rebase on drm-intel-nightly 2015y-09m-01d-09h-06m-08s UTC,
         rephrase commit message. (Jani Nicula)
    
    v6:
       * In intelfb_alloc, if __intel_framebuffer_create failed,
         fb will be an ERR_PTR, thus not null. So in the failure
         path we need to check for IS_ERR_OR_NULL to avoid calling
         drm_framebuffer_remove on the ERR_PTR. (Lukas Wunner)
       * Since this is init code a drm_framebuffer_unreference should
         be all we need. drm_framebuffer_remove is for framebuffers
         that userspace has created - and is getting somewhat
         defeatured. (Daniel Vetter)
    
    v7:
       * Clarify why struct_mutex needs to be locked in the second half
         of intelfb_create. (Daniel Vetter)
