Matthew R. Ochs 17ead26f23 cxlflash: Fix to avoid corrupting adapter fops
The fops owned by the adapter can be corrupted in certain scenarios,
opening a window where certain fops are temporarily NULLed before being
reset to their proper value. This can potentially lead software to make
incorrect decisions, leaving the user with the inability to function as
intended.

An example of this behavior can be observed when there are a number of
users with a high rate of turn around (attach to LUN, perform an I/O,
detach from LUN, repeat). Every so often a user is given a valid
context and adapter file descriptor, but the file associated with the
descriptor lacks the correct read permission bit (FMODE_CAN_READ) and
thus the read system call bails before calling the valid read fop.

Background:

The fops is stored in the adapter structure to provide the ability to
lookup the adapter structure from within the fop handler. CXL services
use the file's private_data and at present, the CXL context does not
have a private section. In an effort to limit areas of the cxlflash
driver with code specific the superpipe function, a design choice was
made to keep the details of the fops situated away from the legacy
portions of the driver. This drove the behavior that the adapter fops
is set at the beginning of the disk attach ioctl handler when there
are no users present.

The corruption that this fix remedies is due to the fact that the fops
is initially defaulted to values found within a static structure. When
the fops is handed down to the CXL services later in the attach path,
certain services are patched. The fops structure remains correct until
the user count drops to 0 and the fops is reset, triggering the process
to repeat again. The user counts are tightly coupled with the creation
and deletion of the user context. If multiple users perform a disk
attach at the same time, when the user count is currently 0, some users
can be in the middle of obtaining a file descriptor and have not yet
reached the context creation code that [in addition to creating the
context] increments the user count. Subsequent users coming in to
perform the attach see that the user count is still 0, and reinitialize
the fops, temporarily removing the patched fops. The users that are in
the middle obtaining their file descriptor may then receive an invalid
descriptor.

The fix simply removes the user count altogether and moves the fops
initialization to probe time such that it is only performed one time
for the life of the adapter. In the future, if the CXL services adopt
a private member for their context, that could be used to store the
adapter structure reference and cxlflash could revert to a model that
does not require an embedded fops.
