Wrap the vcpu->pid dereference in the debugfs hook vcpu_get_pid() with
proper RCU read (un)lock. Unlike the code in kvm_vcpu_ioctl(),
vcpu_get_pid() is not a simple access; the pid pointer is passed to
pid_nr() and fully dereferenced if the pointer is non-NULL.
Failure to acquire RCU could result in use-after-free of the old pid if
a different task invokes KVM_RUN and puts the last reference to the old
vcpu->pid between vcpu_get_pid() reading the pointer and dereferencing it
in pid_nr().

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.
