Put the async #PF worker's reference to the VM's address space as soon as the worker is done with the mm. This will allow deferring getting a reference to the worker itself without having to track whether or not getting a reference succeeded. Note, if the vCPU is still alive, there is no danger of the worker getting stuck with tearing down the host page tables, as userspace also holds a reference (obviously), i.e. there is no risk of delaying the page-present notification due to triggering the slow path in mmput().

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
