Tyrel Datwyler 197cd72ec3 powerpc/pseries/vio: Fix iommu_table use-after-free refcount warning
commit aff8c8242bc638ba57247ae1ec5f272ac3ed3b92 upstream.

Commit e5afdf9dd515 ("powerpc/vfio_spapr_tce: Add reference counting to
iommu_table") missed an iommu_table allocation in the pseries vio code.
The iommu_table is allocated with kzalloc and as a result the associated
kref gets a value of zero. This has the side effect that during a DLPAR
remove of the associated virtual IOA the iommu_tce_table_put() triggers
a use-after-free underflow warning.

Further, since the refcount was always zero the iommu_tce_table_put()
fails to call the iommu_table release function resulting in a leak.

Fix this issue be initilizing the iommu_table kref immediately after
allocation.

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
