virtio_gpu_cmd_get_capset would check for the existence of an entry under lock. If it was not found, it would unlock and call virtio_gpu_cmd_get_capset to create a new entry. The new entry would be added it to the list without checking if it was added by another task during the period where the lock was not held resulting in duplicate entries. Compounding this issue, virtio_gpu_cmd_capset_cb would stop iterating after find the first matching entry. Multiple callbacks would modify the first entry, but any subsequent entries and their associated waiters would eventually timeout since they don't become valid, also wasting memory along the way.

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.
