I agree we need something, what I mean is that this check is not
sufficient.

Ah right, relying on the return value of bind() wouldn't be enough even if
we mandated SVA.

The refcount only ensures that the uacce_device object is not freed as
long as there are open fds. But uacce_remove() can run while there are
open fds, or fds in the process of being opened. And atfer uacce_remove()
runs, the uacce_device object still exists but is mostly unusable. For
example once the module is freed, uacce->ops is not valid anymore. But
currently uacce_fops_open() may dereference the ops in this case:

uacce_fops_open()
if (!uacce->parent->driver)
/* Still valid, keep going */
... rmmod
uacce_remove()
... free_module()
uacce->ops->get_queue() /* BUG */

Accessing uacce->ops after free_module() is a use-after-free. We need all
the fops to synchronize with uacce_remove() to ensure they don't use any
resource of the parent after it's been freed.

I see uacce_fops_poll() may have the same problem, and should be inside
uacce_mutex.

Thanks,
Jean
