Bug description:
  [Impact]

  Quan Luo and ycq from Codesafe Team of Legendsec at Qi'anxin Group
  reported a use-after-free issue in the i915 driver. This issue has
  been fixed in the upstream kernel starting in v5.2 with the following
  commit:

  
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=7dc40713618c884bf07c030d1ab1f47a9dc1f310

  The flaw was introduced in v4.14 with this change:

  
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=1acfc104cdf8a3408f0e83b4115d4419c6315005

  The problem can be fixed by expanding the usage of struct_mutex to
  include the GEM context lookup. A fix has been submitted to the
  upstream stable list:

  
https://lore.kernel.org/stable/20200114183937.12224-1-tyhi...@canonical.com/T/#u

  [Test Case]

  Enable KASAN and exercise the affected code path using the PoC
  provided by Quan Luo.

  [Regression Potential]

  Low. This approach was suggested by upstream and has been well tested.
