Subject: [PATCH] cxl/port: Fix delete_endpoint() vs parent unregistration race

The CXL subsystem, at cxl_mem ->probe() time, establishes a lineage of ports (struct cxl_port objects) between an endpoint and the root of a CXL topology. Each port including the endpoint port is attached to the cxl_port driver.

Given that setup, it follows that when either any port in that lineage goes through a cxl_port ->remove() event, or the memdev goes through a cxl_mem ->remove() event. The hierarchy below the removed port, or the entire hierarchy if the memdev is removed needs to come down.

The delete_endpoint() callback is careful to check whether it is being called to tear down the hierarchy, or if it is only being called to teardown the memdev because an ancestor port is going through ->remove().

That care needs to take the device_lock() of the endpoint's parent. Which requires 2 bugs to be fixed:

1/ A reference on the parent is needed to prevent use-after-free
scenarios like this signature:

     worker_thread+0x1dd/0x3d0

2/ In the case of RCH topologies, the parent device that needs to be
locked is not always @port->dev as returned by cxl_mem_find_port(), use endpoint->dev.parent instead.
