commit 2bbac98d0930e8161b1957dc0ec99de39ade1b3c upstream.
Under certain conditions, such as MPI_Abort, the hfi1 cleanup code may
represent the last reference held on the task mm.
hfi1_mmu_rb_unregister() then drops the last reference and the mm is freed
before the final use in hfi1_release_user_pages(). A new task may
allocate the mm structure while it is still being used, resulting in
problems. One manifestation is corruption of the mmap_sem counter leading
to a hang in down_write(). Another is corruption of an mm struct that is
in use by another task.
Fixes: 3d2a9d642512 ("IB/hfi1: Ensure correct mm is used at all times")

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.
