[Stable-9.1.2 68/72] vfio/container: Fix container object destruction
Posted by Michael Tokarev 4 days, 11 hours ago
From: Cédric Le Goater <clg@redhat.com>

When commit 96b7af4388b3 intoduced a .instance_finalize() handler,
it did not take into account that the container was not necessarily
inserted into the container list of the address space. Hence, if
the container object is destroyed, by calling object_unref() for
example, before vfio_address_space_insert() is called, QEMU may
crash when removing the container from the list as done in
vfio_container_instance_finalize(). This was seen with an SEV-SNP
guest for which discarding of RAM fails.

To resolve this issue, use the safe version of QLIST_REMOVE().
