Date: Tue, 23 Aug 2022 13:51:02 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <74d93541ea533ef7daec6f126deb1072500aeb16.1661251841.git.leonro@nvidia.com> (raw)

From: Yishai Hadas <yishaih@nvidia.com>

Fix a nested dead lock as part of ODP flow by using mmput_async().

From the below call trace [1] can see that calling mmput() once we have
the umem_odp->umem_mutex locked as required by
ib_umem_odp_map_dma_and_lock() might trigger in the same task the
exit_mmap()->__mmu_notifier_release()->mlx5_ib_invalidate_range() which
may dead lock when trying to lock the same mutex.

Moving to use mmput_async() will solve the problem as the above
exit_mmap() flow will be called in other task and will be executed once
the lock will be available.
