mm/hmm: fix race between hmm_mirror_unregister() and mmu_notifier callback
In hmm_mirror_unregister(), mm->hmm is set to NULL and then mmu_notifier_unregister_no_release() is called. That creates a small window where mmu_notifier can call mmu_notifier_ops with mm->hmm equal to NULL. Fix this by first unregistering mmu notifier callbacks and then setting mm->hmm to NULL. Similarly in hmm_register(), set mm->hmm before registering mmu_notifier callbacks so callback functions always see mm->hmm set.

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.
