Daniel Vetter c578f31bba drm/vgem: Close use-after-free race in vgem_gem_create 
commit 4b848f20ed upstream.

There's two references floating around here (for the object reference,
not the handle_count reference, that's a different thing):

- The temporary reference held by vgem_gem_create, acquired by
  creating the object and released by calling
  drm_gem_object_put_unlocked.

- The reference held by the object handle, created by
  drm_gem_handle_create. This one generally outlives the function,
  except if a 2nd thread races with a GEM_CLOSE ioctl call.

So usually everything is correct, except in that race case, where the
access to gem_object->size could be looking at freed data already.
Which again isn't a real problem (userspace shot its feet off already
with the race, we could return garbage), but maybe someone can exploit
this as an information leak.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
