Since reservation_object_fini() does an immediate free, rather than
kfree_rcu as normal, we have to delay the release until after the RCU
grace period has elapsed (i.e. from the rcu cleanup callback) so that we
can rely on the RCU protected access to the fences while the object is a
zombie.
i915_gem_busy_ioctl relies on having an RCU barrier to protect the
reservation in order to avoid having to take a reference and strong
memory barriers.
v2: Order is important; only release after putting the pages!
Fixes: c03467ba40 ("drm/i915/gem: Free pages before rcu-freeing the object")
Testcase: igt/gem_busy/close-race

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.
