drm: protect drm_master pointers in drm_lease.c
drm_file->master pointers should be protected by
drm_device.master_mutex or drm_file.master_lookup_lock when being
dereferenced.
However, in drm_lease.c, there are multiple instances where
drm_file->master is accessed and dereferenced while neither lock is
held. This makes drm_lease.c vulnerable to use-after-free bugs.
We address this issue in 2 ways:
1. Add a new drm_file_get_master() function that calls drm_master_get
on drm_file->master while holding on to
drm_file.master_lookup_lock. Since drm_master_get increments the
reference count of master, this prevents master from being freed until
we unreference it with drm_master_put.
2. In each case where drm_file->master is directly accessed and
eventually dereferenced in drm_lease.c, we wrap the access in a call
to the new drm_file_get_master function, then unreference the master
pointer once we are done using it.
