Subject: Re: [PATCH v2] fbdev: Fix invalid page access after closing deferred

Do you have more information on this problem?

The mmap'ed buffer of the fbdev device comes from a vmalloc call. That 
memory's location never changes; even across pairs of open/close on the 
device file. I'm surprised that a page entry becomes invalid.

In drm_fbdev_cleanup(), we first remove the fbdefio at [1] and then 
vfree() the shadow buffer. So the memory should still be around until 
fbdevio is gone.

The delayed work is required to copy the framebuffer to the device 
output. So if it's just canceled, could this result in missing updates?

There's a call to cancel_delayed_work_sync() in the new helper 
fb_deferred_io_release(). Is this the right function? Maybe 
flush_delayed_work() is a better choice.

This could use a Fixes tag. It's not exactly clear to me when this 
problem got originally introduced, but the recent refactoring seems a 
candidate.

It's all in the same module. No need to export this symbol.
