Subject: [PATCH 0/2] Protect against iommu driver disconnect

Michael Tsirkin pointed out that file operations on /dev/vfio/vfio
dereference iommu_driver and iommu_data without a lock. If releasing
a group or unsetting the container occurs concurrently, we could race.
We currently use a mutex when setting this association, so we can
convert to a rwsem keeping the existing mutex critical sections as
down_writes and add down_reads where these are used. Thanks,

Alex

Subject: [PATCH 1/2] vfio: Convert container->group_lock to rwsem

All current users are writers, maintaining current mutual exclusion.
This lets us add read users next.

Subject: [PATCH 2/2] vfio: Use down_reads to protect iommu disconnects

If a group or device is released or a container is unset from a group
it can race against file ops on the container. Protect these with
down_reads to allow concurrent users.
