The CM core takes that lock before invoking\nucma_event_handler(), but the write() paths that queue uevents themselves\ndo not.\n\nucma_write_cm_event() re-reads ctx->file for each of its four dereferences,\nso ucma_migrate_id() can swap it mid-sequence:\n\n\tmutex_lock(&ctx->file->mut);\t\t\t/* file A */\n\tlist_add_tail(&uevent->list, &ctx->file->event_list);\t/* file B */\n\tmutex_unlock(&ctx->file->mut);\t\t\t/* file B */\n\twake_up_interruptible(&ctx->file->poll_wait);\t/* file B */\n\nThe window is the mutex_lock() itself: the writer sleeps in it while the\nmigration reassigns ctx->file.  The list_add_tail() then runs on file B's\nevent_list holding only file A's mutex:\n\n  list_add corruption. prev->next should be next (ffff888101320f30),\n    but was ffff88814a08c418.
