The check is not for the case you described (same fd reused as an in/out 
buffer in a later call). In that case i < nbufs so the map is created 
with take_ref = true and the refcount is indeed held, and the re-lookup 
simply passes.
The check is needed for DMA handle args themselves, which are created 
with take_ref = false. For those maps this context holds only a borrowed 
reference — the owning reference is dropped when the DSP returns the fd 
via fdlist in fastrpc_put_args(), which may run from a concurrent 
invocation. So between fastrpc_create_maps() and fastrpc_get_args() the 
map may already have been freed, and dereferencing ctx->maps[i] would be 
a use-after-free. The re-lookup re-validates that the map is still 
present before we dereference it.
(If you believe there is no competition, I will drop this code.)

Agreed, this relies on the DSP reporting a given fd in the fdlist only 
once, so no concurrent fastrpc_put_args() can update the same map's 
flags. I'll add a comment documenting this assumption in v3.
Will send v3 with the clarified comments.
