Summary
drm/amdgpu: fix a job->pasid access race in gpu recovery
Details

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

drm/amdgpu: fix a job->pasid access race in gpu recovery

Avoid a possible UAF in GPU recovery due to a race between the sched timeout callback and the tdr work queue.

The gpu recovery function calls drmschedstop() and later drmschedstart(). drmschedstart() restarts the tdr queue which will eventually free the job. If the tdr queue frees the job before time out callback completes, the job will be freed and we'll get a UAF when accessing the pasid. Cache it early to avoid the UAF.
