The ro_release_mr methods check whether mr->mr_list is empty.
Therefore, be sure to always use list_del_init when removing an MR
linked into a list using that field. Otherwise, when recovering from
transport failures or device removal, list corruption can result, or
MRs can get mapped or unmapped an odd number of times, resulting in
IOMMU-related failures.
In general this fix is appropriate back to v4.8. However, code
changes since then make it impossible to apply this patch directly
to stable kernels. The fix would have to be applied by hand or
reworked for kernels earlier than v4.16.
Backport guidance -- there are several cases:
- When creating an MR, initialize mr_list so that using list_empty
on an as-yet-unused MR is safe.
- When an MR is being handled by the remote invalidation path,
ensure that mr_list is reinitialized when it is removed from
rl_registered.
- When an MR is being handled by rpcrdma_destroy_mrs, it is removed
from mr_all, but it may still be on an rl_registered list. In
that case, the MR needs to be removed from that list before being
released.
- Other cases are covered by using list_del_init in rpcrdma_mr_pop.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
