Sean Christopherson 422eeb543a KVM: Put mm immediately after async #PF worker completes remote gup()
Put the async #PF worker's reference to the VM's address space as soon as
the worker is done with the mm.  This will allow deferring getting a
reference to the worker itself without having to track whether or not
getting a reference succeeded.

Note, if the vCPU is still alive, there is no danger of the worker getting
stuck with tearing down the host page tables, as userspace also holds a
reference (obviously), i.e. there is no risk of delaying the page-present
notification due to triggering the slow path in mmput().

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.
