  Racing conflict could be:
task A                 task B
list_for_each_entry
strcmp(h->name))
                       list_for_each_entry
                       strcmp(h->name)
kzalloc                kzalloc
......                 .....
device_create          device_create
list_add
                       list_add

The root cause is that task B has no idea about the fact someone
else(A) has inserted heap with same name when it calls list_add,
so a potential collision occurs.

Fixes: c02a81fba74f ("dma-buf: Add dma-buf heaps framework")

Good catch!

In general I'd like to hold locks for as short a time as possible and
only bracket the lock associated structure (heap_list). How about we
move the duplicate name check to down here so they are both inside
this one locked section here.

I know this will mean we take a longer unwind error path
if the names are duplicated, but that should be rare and
this will keep all heap_list accesses together.

Thanks,
Andrew
