Probably a hint that we are missing a flush.

Looking at vhost_vsock_stop() that is called by vhost_vsock_dev_release():

static int vhost_vsock_stop(struct vhost_vsock *vsock)
{
size_t i;
        int ret;

        mutex_lock(&vsock->dev.mutex);

        ret = vhost_dev_check_owner(&vsock->dev);
        if (ret)
                goto err;

Where it could fail so the device is not actually stopped.

I wonder if this is something related.

Thanks

But then if that is not the owner then no work should be running, right?
Could it be a buggy user space that passes the fd to another process
and changes the owner just before the mutex_lock() above?

Thanks
Maybe, but can you be a bit more explicit? what is the set of
conditions you see that can lead to this?
I think the issue could be in the vhost_vsock_stop() as Jason mentioned, 
but not related to fd passing, but related to the do_exit() function.

Looking the stack trace, we are in exit_task_work(), that is called 
after exit_mm(), so the vhost_dev_check_owner() can fail because 
current->mm should be NULL at that point.

It seems the fput work is queued by fput_many() in a worker queue, and 
in some cases (maybe a lot of files opened?) the work is still queued 
when we enter in do_exit().

That said, I don't know if we can simply remove that check in 
vhost_vsock_stop(), or check if current->mm is NULL, to understand if 
the process is exiting.

Stefano
