rvt_mregion uses percpu_ref for reference counting and RCU to protect accesses from lkey_table. When a rvt_mregion needs to be freed, it first gets unregistered from lkey_table and then rvt_check_refs() is called to wait for in-flight usages before the rvt_mregion is freed. rvt_check_refs() seems to have a couple issues. * It has a fast exit path which tests percpu_ref_is_zero(). However, a percpu_ref reading zero doesn't mean that the object can be released. In fact, the ->release() callback might not even have started executing yet. Proceeding with freeing can lead to use-after-free. * lkey_table is RCU protected but there is no RCU grace period in the free path. percpu_ref uses RCU internally but it's sched-RCU whose grace periods are different from regular RCU. Also, it generally isn't a good idea to depend on internal behaviors like this. To address the above issues, this patch removes the fast exit and adds an explicit synchronize_rcu().
