Subject: [PATCH 4.17 095/220] IB/uverbs: Fix ordering of ucontext check in ib_uverbs_write

4.17-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Jason Gunthorpe <jgg@...lanox.com>

commit 1eb9364ce81d9445ad6f9d44921a91d2a6597156 upstream.

During disassociation the ucontext will become NULL, however due to how
the SRCU locking works the ucontext must only be examined after looking
at the ib_dev, which governs the RCU control flow.

With the wrong ordering userspace will see EINVAL instead of EIO for a
disassociated uverbs FD, which breaks rdma-core.
