Dan Williams 49f2dab77a cxl/port: Hold port reference until decoder release 
[ Upstream commit 74be98774d ]

KASAN + DEBUG_KOBJECT_RELEASE reports a potential use-after-free in
cxl_decoder_release() where it goes to reference its parent, a cxl_port,
to free its id back to port->decoder_ida.

 BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in to_cxl_port+0x18/0x90 [cxl_core]
 Read of size 8 at addr ffff888119270908 by task kworker/35:2/379

 CPU: 35 PID: 379 Comm: kworker/35:2 Tainted: G           OE     5.17.0-rc2+ #198
 Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (Q35 + ICH9, 2009), BIOS 0.0.0 02/06/2015
 Workqueue: events kobject_delayed_cleanup

  device_release+0x5f/0x100
  kobject_cleanup+0x80/0x1c0

The device core only guarantees parent lifetime until all children are
unregistered. If a child needs a parent to complete its ->release()
callback that child needs to hold a reference to extend the lifetime of
the parent.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

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.
