Use After Free

Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
vhost_vdpa: assign irq bypass producer token correctly<br />
<br />
We used to call irq_bypass_unregister_producer() in<br />
vhost_vdpa_setup_vq_irq() which is problematic as we don&#39;t know if the<br />
token pointer is still valid or not.<br />
<br />
Actually, we use the eventfd_ctx as the token so the life cycle of the<br />
token should be bound to the VHOST_SET_VRING_CALL instead of<br />
vhost_vdpa_setup_vq_irq() which could be called by set_status().<br />
<br />
Fixing this by setting up irq bypass producer&#39;s token when handling<br />
VHOST_SET_VRING_CALL and un-registering the producer before calling<br />
vhost_vring_ioctl() to prevent a possible use after free as eventfd<br />
could have been released in vhost_vring_ioctl(). And such registering<br />
and unregistering will only be done if DRIVER_OK is set.
