Nothing prevents the following: pvclock_gtod_notify() queue_work(system_long_wq, &pvclock_gtod_work); ... remove_module(kvm); ... work_queue_run() pvclock_gtod_work() <- UAF Ditto for any other operation on that workqueue list head which touches pvclock_gtod_work after module removal. Cancel the work in kvm_arch_exit() to prevent that.
