Thanks a lot. I've done an audit of this code, and I found another
potential problem in drm_is_current_master. The callers from drm_auth.c
hold the dev->master_mutex, but all the external ones dont. I think we
need to split this into a _locked function for use within drm_auth.c, and
the exported one needs to grab the dev->master_mutex while it's checking
master status. Ofc there will still be races, those are ok, but right now
we run the risk of use-after free problems in drm_lease_owner.

Are you up to do that fix too?

I think the drm_lease.c code also needs an audit, there we'd need to make
sure that we hold hold either the lock or a full master reference to avoid
the use-after-free issues here.

Patch merged to drm-misc-fixes with cc: stable.
