Subject: Re: [PATCH] dm: introduce spinlocks to prevent concurrent usage and
 release of device_metadata and hash

The UAF is a problem. However, I think the order of
dm_ima_measure_on_device_remove() and dm_ima_measure_on_device_resume is
bigger problem. Is it possible to order these two invocations properly
by using suspend_lock ?

Instead of adding four spin-locks, how about only using one ?
