Jiri Pirko 255cd50f20 net: sched: fix use-after-free in tcf_action_destroy and tcf_del_walker
Recent commit d7fb60b9ca ("net_sched: get rid of tcfa_rcu") removed
freeing in call_rcu, which changed already existing hard-to-hit
race condition into 100% hit:

[  598.599825] BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000030
[  598.607782] IP: tcf_action_destroy+0xc0/0x140

Or:

[   40.858924] BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000030
[   40.862840] IP: tcf_generic_walker+0x534/0x820

Fix this by storing the ops and use them directly for module_put call.

README

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

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.
