Re: [PATCH kernel v3] powerpc/book3s64: Fix error handling in mm_iommu_do_alloc()

quoted hunk ↗ jump to hunk
The last jump to free_exit in mm_iommu_do_alloc() happens after page
pointers in struct mm_iommu_table_group_mem_t were already converted to
physical addresses. Thus calling put_page() on these physical addresses
will likely crash.

This moves the loop which calculates the pageshift and converts page
struct pointers to physical addresses later after the point when
we cannot fail; thus eliminating the need to convert pointers back.

Fixes: eb9d7a62c386 ("powerpc/mm_iommu: Fix potential deadlock")

Changes:
v3:
* move pointers conversion after the last possible failure point

... by making this loop up to `pinned`.

`pinned` is only incremented in the loop that does the GUP, and there's
a check that pinned == entries after that loop.

So when we get here we know pinned == entries, and if pinned is zero
it's because we took the (dev_hpa != MM_IOMMU_TABLE_INVALID_HPA) case at
the start of the function to get here.

Or do you think that's too subtle to rely on?
