Eric W. Biederman dd9a2648b3 net: Fix double free and memory corruption in get_net_ns_by_id() 
[ Upstream commit 21b5944350 ]

(I can trivially verify that that idr_remove in cleanup_net happens
 after the network namespace count has dropped to zero --EWB)

Function get_net_ns_by_id() does not check for net::count
after it has found a peer in netns_ids idr.

It may dereference a peer, after its count has already been
finaly decremented. This leads to double free and memory
corruption:

put_net(peer)                                   rtnl_lock()
atomic_dec_and_test(&peer->count) [count=0]     ...
__put_net(peer)                                 get_net_ns_by_id(net, id)
  spin_lock(&cleanup_list_lock)
  list_add(&net->cleanup_list, &cleanup_list)
  spin_unlock(&cleanup_list_lock)
queue_work()                                      peer = idr_find(&net->netns_ids, id)

    (Second free of peer)

Also, put_net() on the right cpu may reorder with left's cpu
list_replace_init(&cleanup_list, ..), and then cleanup_list
will be corrupted.

Since cleanup_net() is executed in worker thread, while
put_net(peer) can happen everywhere, there should be
enough time for concurrent get_net_ns_by_id() to pick
the peer up, and the race does not seem to be unlikely.
The patch fixes the problem in standard way.

(Also, there is possible problem in peernet2id_alloc(), which requires
check for net::count under nsid_lock and maybe_get_net(peer), but
in current stable kernel it's used under rtnl_lock() and it has to be
safe. Openswitch begun to use peernet2id_alloc(), and possibly it should
be fixed too. While this is not in stable kernel yet, so I'll send
a separate message to netdev@ later).

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
