## Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:  drm/xe/vf: Fix VF CCS attach/detach race with in-flight BO moves  xe_bo_move() attaches VF CCS read/write batch buffers (BBs) to a BO after it transitions NULL/SYSTEM -> TT, and detaches them after it transitions TT -> SYSTEM. Both operations were done synchronously on the CPU immediately after building the move's copy/clear fence, without waiting for that fence to signal. This creates two races with VF migration:  - Attach happens too late relative to the copy job it is meant to   protect. If the copy job is submitted before the CCS BBs are   attached, a VF migration event that pauses execution mid-copy can   observe partially copied CCS metadata without the attach state   needed to correctly save/restore it.  - Detach happens too early relative to the copy job that moves data   out of TT. The CCS BBs are torn down right after the copy fence is   obtained, while the actual blit may still be in flight. A VF   migration event that pauses execution mid-copy can then race the   save/restore path against the still-running blit, and the CCS BBs   it would need to make sense of the paused state have already been   removed.  Fix both races:  - Move the attach call to before the copy/clear job is submitted, so   the CCS BBs are already registered by the time the copy runs. On   attach failure, unwind and bail out of the move. xe_migrate_ccs_rw_copy()   now takes the destination resource explicitly, since bo->ttm.resource   is not updated to the new resource until after the move commits.  - Detach only after explicitly waiting for the copy fence to signal,   instead of tearing down the CCS BBs immediately after obtaining it.  While here, also fix xe_sriov_vf_ccs_attach_bo() to properly unwind and propagate errors: the per-context loop previously never broke out on error, silently discarding earlier failures. Unwind by clearing each attached context directly via xe_migrate_ccs_rw_copy_clear() instead of reusing xe_sriov_vf_ccs_detach_bo(), which requires both contexts to be attached before it will clean up either one.
