Wang Zhaolong 4256a483fe smb: client: fix use-after-free in cifs_oplock_break 
[ Upstream commit 705c79101c ]

A race condition can occur in cifs_oplock_break() leading to a
use-after-free of the cinode structure when unmounting:

  cifs_oplock_break()
    _cifsFileInfo_put(cfile)
      cifsFileInfo_put_final()
        cifs_sb_deactive()
          [last ref, start releasing sb]
            kill_sb()
              kill_anon_super()
                generic_shutdown_super()
                  evict_inodes()
                    dispose_list()
                      evict()
                        destroy_inode()
                          call_rcu(&inode->i_rcu, i_callback)
    spin_lock(&cinode->open_file_lock)  <- OK
                            [later] i_callback()
                              cifs_free_inode()
                                kmem_cache_free(cinode)
    spin_unlock(&cinode->open_file_lock)  <- UAF
    cifs_done_oplock_break(cinode)       <- UAF

The issue occurs when umount has already released its reference to the
superblock. When _cifsFileInfo_put() calls cifs_sb_deactive(), this
releases the last reference, triggering the immediate cleanup of all
inodes under RCU. However, cifs_oplock_break() continues to access the
cinode after this point, resulting in use-after-free.

Fix this by holding an extra reference to the superblock during the
entire oplock break operation. This ensures that the superblock and
its inodes remain valid until the oplock break completes.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
