pnv_npu2_init_context wasn't checking the return code from __mmu_notifier_register. If __mmu_notifier_register failed, the npu_context was still assigned to the mm and the caller wasn't given any indication that things went wrong. Later on pnv_npu2_destroy_context would be called, which in turn called mmu_notifier_unregister and dropped mm->mm_count without having incremented it in the first place. This led to various forms of corruption like mm use-after-free and mm double-free. __mmu_notifier_register can fail with EINTR if a signal is pending, so this case can be frequent. This patch calls opal_npu_destroy_context on the failure paths, and makes sure not to assign mm->context.npu_context until past the failure points.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
