Sorry I missed this before...

So if I understand correctly, you shut down the device - which naturally 
frees some DMA mappings into the FQ - then hotplug it out, such that 
tearing down its group and default domain can end up racing with the 
timeout firing on a different CPU? It would help if the commit message 
actually explained that - I've just reverse-engineered it from the given 
symptom - rather than focusing on details that aren't really important. 
fq->lock is hardly significant, since *any* access to the FQ while it's 
being destroyed is fundamentally unsound. I also spent way too long 
trying to understand the significance of the full stack trace below 
before realising that it is in fact just irrelevant - there's only one 
way fq_flush_timeout() ever gets called, and it's the obvious one.

The fix itself seems reasonable - the kerneldoc for del_timer_sync() is 
slightly scary, but since free_iova_flush_queue() doesn't touch any of 
the locks and definitely shouldn't run in IRQ context I believe we're OK.

This will affect my IOVA refactoring series a little, so I'm happy to 
help improve the writeup if you like - provided that my understanding is 
actually correct - and include it in a v2 of that.

Thanks,
Robin.
