rproc_vq_interrupt() looks up rvring->vq and passes it to
vring_interrupt() without synchronizing against __rproc_virtio_del_vqs(),
which clears rvring->vq and frees the virtqueue. rproc_stop() and
__rproc_detach() stop the subdevices, and so delete the virtqueues,
before the remote processor is stopped or detached, so the remote can
still signal a vring meanwhile. The interrupt path can then pass a NULL
or already freed virtqueue to vring_interrupt().
Protect rvring->vq with SRCU: rproc_vq_interrupt() uses the virtqueue
inside a read-side section, and __rproc_virtio_del_vqs() clears the
pointers and waits for readers before freeing the virtqueues. Plain RCU
is not usable because rproc_vq_interrupt() is also called from process
context, where vring callbacks may sleep.

Changes in v2:
- Rework the fix: v1 only loaded rvring->vq once, which closes the NULL
window but not the use-after-free once the virtqueue is freed after
the load (Mathieu Poirier). Use SRCU so __rproc_virtio_del_vqs()
waits for rproc_vq_interrupt() before freeing the virtqueues.
- Update the subject accordingly.
v1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260922190159.509836-1-oss.patchbox@gmail.com/
Compile-tested only (arm64 and x86_64 defconfig + REMOTEPROC/RPMSG_VIRTIO,
W=1, sparse).
