vhost_vsock_stop() calls vhost_dev_check_owner() to check the device ownership. It expects current->mm to be valid. vhost_vsock_stop() is also called by vhost_vsock_dev_release() when the user has not done close(), so when we are in do_exit(). In this case current->mm is invalid and we're releasing the device, so we should clean it anyway. Let's check the owner only when vhost_vsock_stop() is called by an ioctl. When invoked from release we can not fail so we don't check return code of vhost_vsock_stop(). We need to stop vsock even if it's not the owner.

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.
