    IB/mlx5: Fix implicit MR release flow · f591822c
    Yishai Hadas authored
    Once implicit MR is being called to be released by
    ib_umem_notifier_release() its leaves were marked as "dying".
    
    However, when dereg_mr()->mlx5_ib_free_implicit_mr()->mr_leaf_free() is
    called, it skips running the mr_leaf_free_action (i.e. umem_odp->work)
    when those leaves were marked as "dying".
    
    As such ib_umem_release() for the leaves won't be called and their MRs
    will be leaked as well.
    
    When an application exits/killed without calling dereg_mr we might hit the
    above flow.
    
    This fatal scenario is reported by WARN_ON() upon
    mlx5_ib_dealloc_ucontext() as ibcontext->per_mm_list is not empty, the
    call trace can be seen below.
    
    Originally the "dying" mark as part of ib_umem_notifier_release() was
    introduced to prevent pagefault_mr() from returning a success response
    once this happened. However, we already have today the completion
    mechanism so no need for that in those flows any more.  Even in case a
    success response will be returned the firmware will not find the pages and
    an error will be returned in the following call as a released mm will
    cause ib_umem_odp_map_dma_pages() to permanently fail mmget_not_zero().
    
    Fix the above issue by dropping the "dying" from the above flows.  The
    other flows that are using "dying" are still needed it for their
    synchronization purposes.
