The call to ->lookup_put() was too early and it caused an unlock of the
read/write protection of the uobject after the FD was put. This allows a
race:
CPU1 CPU2
rdma_lookup_put_uobject()
lookup_put_fd_uobject()
fput()
fput()
uverbs_uobject_fd_release()
WARN_ON(uverbs_try_lock_object(uobj,
UVERBS_LOOKUP_WRITE));
atomic_dec(usecnt)
Fix the code by changing the order, first unlock and call to
->lookup_put() after that.

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.
