drm_gem_dma_mmap() drops a GEM reference when the DMA mapping fails:
if (ret)
drm_gem_vm_close(vma);
drm_gem_vm_close() puts vma->vm_private_data. drm_gem_mmap_obj() has
already pointed that at the object, and puts it again when the callback
returns an error:
drm_gem_object_get(obj);
vma->vm_private_data = obj;
...
ret = obj->funcs->mmap(obj, vma);
if (ret)
goto err_drm_gem_object_put;
One get, two puts: a failing dma_mmap_wc() or dma_mmap_pages() underflows
the reference count and can free the object while the caller still holds
it.
The callee does not own that reference. drm_gem_shmem_mmap() returns the
error and leaves the put to the caller, and both callers do it,
drm_gem_mmap_obj() as above and drm_gem_prime_mmap() from its own error
path. Drop the call.
It was harmless until commit f49a51bfdc8e ("drm/shme-helpers: Fix
dma_buf_mmap forwarding bug") moved the vm_private_data assignment ahead
of the callback; before that the field was still NULL when the callback
ran and drm_gem_vm_close() put nothing.
exynos_drm_gem_mmap() and __tegra_gem_mmap() have the same error path.
Fixes: f49a51bfdc8e ("drm/shme-helpers: Fix dma_buf_mmap forwarding bug")
