There may be threads racing to update dso->nsinfo: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-perf-users/CAP-5=fWZH20L4kv-BwVtGLwR=Em3AOOT+Q4QGivvQuYn5AsPRg@mail.gmail.com/ Holding the dso->lock avoids use-after-free, memory leaks and other such bugs. Apply the fix in: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-perf-users/20211118193714.2293728-1-irogers@google.com/ of there being a missing nsinfo__put now that the accesses are data race free. Fixes test "Lookup mmap thread" when compiled with address sanitizer.

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.
