David Howells 9b4c95a63e afs: Fix use-after-free due to get/remove race in volume tree 
[ Upstream commit 9a6b294ab4 ]

When an afs_volume struct is put, its refcount is reduced to 0 before
the cell->volume_lock is taken and the volume removed from the
cell->volumes tree.

Unfortunately, this means that the lookup code can race and see a volume
with a zero ref in the tree, resulting in a use-after-free:

    refcount_t: addition on 0; use-after-free.
    WARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 130782 at lib/refcount.c:25 refcount_warn_saturate+0x7a/0xda
    ...
    RIP: 0010:refcount_warn_saturate+0x7a/0xda
    ...
    Call Trace:

     do_syscall_64+0x3a/0x94
     entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x62/0x6a

Fix this by:

 (1) When putting, use a flag to indicate if the volume has been removed
     from the tree and skip the rb_erase if it has.

 (2) When looking up, use a conditional ref increment and if it fails
     because the refcount is 0, replace the node in the tree and set the
     removal flag.

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.
