mainlining shenanigans

drm_file->master pointers should be protected by drm_device.master_mutex or drm_file.master_lookup_lock when being dereferenced. However, in drm_lease.c, there are multiple instances where drm_file->master is accessed and dereferenced while neither lock is held. This makes drm_lease.c vulnerable to use-after-free bugs. We address this issue in 2 ways: 1. Add a new drm_file_get_master() function that calls drm_master_get on drm_file->master while holding on to drm_file.master_lookup_lock. Since drm_master_get increments the reference count of master, this prevents master from being freed until we unreference it with drm_master_put. 2. In each case where drm_file->master is directly accessed and eventually dereferenced in drm_lease.c, we wrap the access in a call to the new drm_file_get_master function, then unreference the master pointer once we are done using it.

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.
