Parav Pandit 8c705dea5e RDMA/cma: Protect cma dev list with lock
commit 954a8e3aea87e896e320cf648c1a5bbe47de443e upstream.

When AF_IB addresses are used during rdma_resolve_addr() a lock is not
held. A cma device can get removed while list traversal is in progress
which may lead to crash. ie

        CPU0                                     CPU1
        ====                                     ====
rdma_resolve_addr()
 cma_resolve_ib_dev()
  list_for_each()                         cma_remove_one()
    cur_dev->device                        mutex_lock(&lock)
                                            list_del();
                                           mutex_unlock(&lock);
                                           cma_process_remove();


Therefore, hold a lock while traversing the list which avoids such
situation.

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

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

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.
