    Commit 9ead190b ("IB/uverbs: Don't serialize with ib_uverbs_idr_mutex")
    rewrote how userspace objects are looked up in the uverbs module's
    idrs, and introduced a severe bug in the process: there is no checking
    that an operation is being performed by the right process any more.
    Fix this by adding the missing check of uobj->context in __idr_get_uobj().
    
    Apparently everyone is being very careful to only touch their own
    objects, because this bug was introduced in June 2006 in 2.6.18, and
    has gone undetected until now.
