[PATCH v3 0/2] net: io_uring/zcrx: call netdev_queue_get_dma_dev() under instance lock

From: David Wei <hidden>

Also in: io-uring

netdev ops must be called under instance lock or rtnl_lock, but
io_register_zcrx_ifq() isn't doing this for netdev_queue_get_dma_dev().
Fix this by taking the instance lock using netdev_get_by_index_lock().

netdev_get_by_index_lock() isn't available outside net/ by default, so
the first patch is a prep patch to export this under linux/netdevice.h.

Extended the instance lock section to include attaching a memory
provider. Could not move io_zcrx_create_area() outside, since the dmabuf
codepath IORING_ZCRX_AREA_DMABUF requires ifq->dev.

The netdev instance lock is taken first, followed by holding a ref. On
err, this is freed in LIFO order: put ref then unlock. After
successfully opening the mp on an rxq, the instance lock is unlocked and
ifq->if_rxq is set to a valid value. If there are future errs,
io_zcrx_ifq_free() will put the ref.

v3:
 - do not export netdev_get_by_index_lock()
 - fix netdev lock/ref cleanup

v2:
 - add Fixes tag
 - export netdev_get_by_index_lock()
 - use netdev_get_by_index_lock() + netdev_hold()
 - extend lock section to include net_mp_open_rxq()

  net: export netdev_get_by_index_lock()
  net: io_uring/zcrx: call netdev_queue_get_dma_dev() under instance
    lock
