Why are these global? Can these be not part of struc gh_rm?
Not to mention please move idr to xarrays.

We should never have any instances as we have refcounted the module.

If there are any instances then its clearly a bug, as this will pull out 
function under the hood while userspace is using it.

lets print some useful error message to user.

hmm, arg is not a data pointer it is a fixed size variable (__u64 arg), 
so why are using compat_ptr() here?

you should be able to do

argp = u64_to_user_ptr(f->arg);

bit lost here, so, we treat the arg as both pointer and value in cases 
where size is zero.

--->
can we do this snippet as a gh_vm_get_function() and corresponding 
gh_vm_put_function(). that should make the code more cleaner.

I guess its possible to add same functions with same argumentso to this 
list, how are we preventing this to happen?

Is it a valid usecase?

we are memory leaking f here, we should free it irrespective of return 
value. or I see no reason not to use this small struct from stack.

Am not seeing any advantage of storing the instance in two different 
list, they look redundant to me. storing the function instances in vm 
should be good IMO.

a note on max arg size  of 256 bytes would be useful.

Treating this as value when arg_size == 0 is really confusing abi.
how about just use as arg as ptr to data along with arg_size;

Do you have an example of how add and rm ioctls are used w.r.t to arg, i 
see that we check correcteness of arg in between add and remove.
