commit 0e33ac9c3ffe5e4f55c68345f44cea7fec2fe750 upstream.
Poison inject and clear are supported via debugfs where a privileged
user can inject and clear poison to a device physical address.
Commit 458ba8189cb4 ("cxl: Add cxl_decoders_committed() helper")
added a lockdep assert that highlighted a gap in poison inject and
clear functions where holding the dpa_rwsem does not assure that a
a DPA is not added to a region.
The impact for inject and clear is that if the DPA address being
injected or cleared has been attached to a region, but not yet
committed, the dev_dbg() message intended to alert the debug user
that they are acting on a mapped address is not emitted. Also, the
cxl_poison trace event that serves as a log of the inject and clear
activity will not include region info.
Close this gap by snapshotting an unchangeable region state during
poison inject and clear operations. That means holding both the
region_rwsem and the dpa_rwsem during the inject and clear ops.

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.
