Patch Review
**Bug: Double `mutex_unlock` on the success path**
After applying the patch, the success path through `pvr_vm_map()` executes:
```c
mutex_lock(&vm_ctx->lock); // line 750: acquire
err = drm_gpuvm_exec_lock(&vm_exec);
// ... succeeds, no goto ...
err = pvr_vm_bind_op_exec(&bind_op);
drm_gpuvm_exec_unlock(&vm_exec);
mutex_unlock(&vm_ctx->lock); // line 758: first unlock
err_cleanup:
pvr_vm_bind_op_fini(&bind_op);
mutex_unlock(&vm_ctx->lock); // line 762: SECOND unlock — BUG
```
On success, execution falls through past the first `mutex_unlock` at line 758 into `err_cleanup:`, where the mutex is unlocked a **second time**. This is undefined behavior for a non-recursive mutex — it corrupts the mutex state, can cause subsequent lock attempts to succeed without mutual exclusion, or trigger a `DEBUG_LOCKS_WARN_ON` splat. This effectively trades a NULL dereference race for a lock corruption bug.
The error path (where `drm_gpuvm_exec_lock` fails and jumps to `err_cleanup`) is correct — the mutex is only unlocked once.
**Fix:** Remove the `mutex_unlock` after `drm_gpuvm_exec_unlock()` and keep only the single unlock at `err_cleanup`. This mirrors the structure used in `pvr_vm_unmap_obj_locked()` (lines 800–819) where the cleanup path is the only exit:
```c
mutex_lock(&vm_ctx->lock);
err = drm_gpuvm_exec_lock(&vm_exec);
if (err)
goto err_cleanup;
err = pvr_vm_bind_op_exec(&bind_op);
drm_gpuvm_exec_unlock(&vm_exec);
err_cleanup:
pvr_vm_bind_op_fini(&bind_op);
mutex_unlock(&vm_ctx->lock);
return err;
```
**Minor nit:** The commit message says "all occurences" (should be "occurrences") and "NULL deference" (should be "dereference").
**Verdict:** The intent is correct and the fix is needed, but the implementation has a critical double-unlock bug. NAK in current form; a v3 with the single-unlock-point fix described above should be straightforward.
