RCU is a lock that should only be used for highly performance
sensitive read work loads. It eliminates one atomic from a lock, but
if you go on to immediately do something like try_module_get, which
has an atomic inside, the whole thing is pointless (assuming
try_module_get was even the right thing to do)

Use a simple sleepable rwsem around the whole thing and forget about
the module_get. Hold the write side when NULL'ing the pointer.

There are more options after my re-organizing series.

But I'm not sure why you ask in response to my point about module
locking? Module locking is not really related to sysfs.

Yes, it will wait when the vfio_device is being destroyed.

AFAICT the control flow is such that release can immediately move on
to remove on the same CPU without an additional synchronization. So
the kfree can still race with the above.

But the more I look at this the wonkier it is.. The real issue is not
the matrix_mdev, it is the whole vcpu->kvm->arch.crypto.pqap_hook

This is nonesense too:

	if (vcpu->kvm->arch.crypto.pqap_hook) {
		if (!try_module_get(vcpu->kvm->arch.crypto.pqap_hook->owner))
			return -EOPNOTSUPP;
		ret = vcpu->kvm->arch.crypto.pqap_hook->hook(vcpu);

It should have a lock around it of some kind, not a
try_module_get. module_get is not la lock.

And that lock should interact with loading the hook in the first
place:
		kvm->arch.crypto.pqap_hook = &matrix_mdev->pqap_hook;

And of course NULLin'g the hooke should be synchronous with the lock.

There should be no owner for something like this. unregistering the
function pointer should fully fence all access.

The simple solution in sketch is just this:
