Re: OOPS in perf_mmap_close()

[Peter Zijlstra]

Take 2.. :-)

Leaving the locked vs pinned debacle for another time. The below patch
survives many non-priv execution of the problem prog.

Subject: perf: Fix perf mmap issues

Vince reported a problem found by his perf specific trinity fuzzer. 

Al noticed 2 problems with perf's mmap(): 
 - it has issues against fork() since we use vma->vm_mm for accounting.
 - it has an rb refcount leak on double mmap().

We fix the issues against fork() by using VM_DONTCOPY; I don't think there's
code out there that uses this; we didn't hear about weird accounting
problems/crashes. If we do need this to work, the previously proposed VM_PINNED
could make this work.

Aside from the rb reference leak spotted by Al, Vince's example prog was indeed
doing a double mmap() through the use of perf_event_set_output(). 

This exposes another problem, since we now have 2 events with one buffer, the
accounting gets screwy because we account per event. Fix this by making the
buffer responsible for its own accounting.
