Baokun Li 4c7c44ee16 jffs2: fix use-after-free in jffs2_clear_xattr_subsystem
When we mount a jffs2 image, assume that the first few blocks of
the image are normal and contain at least one xattr-related inode,
but the next block is abnormal. As a result, an error is returned
in jffs2_scan_eraseblock(). jffs2_clear_xattr_subsystem() is then
called in jffs2_build_filesystem() and then again in
jffs2_do_fill_super().

Finally we can observe the following report:
 ==================================================================

 The buggy address belongs to the object at ffff8881243384b8
  which belongs to the cache jffs2_xattr_ref of size 48
 The buggy address is located 40 bytes inside of
  48-byte region [ffff8881243384b8, ffff8881243384e8)
 [...]
 ==================================================================

The triggering of the BUG is shown in the following stack:
-----------------------------------------------------------
jffs2_fill_super
  jffs2_do_fill_super
    jffs2_do_mount_fs
      jffs2_build_filesystem
        jffs2_scan_medium
          jffs2_scan_eraseblock        <--- ERROR
        jffs2_clear_xattr_subsystem    <--- free
    jffs2_clear_xattr_subsystem        <--- free again
-----------------------------------------------------------

An error is returned in jffs2_do_mount_fs(). If the error is returned
by jffs2_sum_init(), the jffs2_clear_xattr_subsystem() does not need to
be executed. If the error is returned by jffs2_build_filesystem(), the
jffs2_clear_xattr_subsystem() also does not need to be executed again.
So move jffs2_clear_xattr_subsystem() from 'out_inohash' to 'out_root'
to fix this UAF problem.

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.
