      afs: Fix permit refcounting · 1bcab125
      David Howells authored
      Fix four refcount bugs in afs_cache_permit():
      
       (1) When checking the result of the kzalloc(), we can't just return, but
           must put 'permits'.
      
       (2) We shouldn't put permits immediately after hashing a new permit as we
           need to keep the pointer stable so that we can check to see if
           vnode->permit_cache has changed before we decide whether to assign to
           it.
      
       (3) 'permits' is being put twice.
      
       (4) We need to put either the replacement or the thing replaced after the
           assignment to vnode->permit_cache.
      
      Without this, lots of the following are seen:
      
        Kernel BUG at ffffffffa039857b [verbose debug info unavailable]
        ------------[ cut here ]------------
        Kernel BUG at ffffffffa039858a [verbose debug info unavailable]
        ------------[ cut here ]------------
      
      The addresses are in the .text..refcount section of the kafs.ko module.
      Following the relocation records for the __ex_table section shows one to be
      due to the decrement in afs_put_permits() and the other to be key_get() in
      afs_cache_permit().
      
      Occasionally, the following is seen:
      
        refcount_t overflow at afs_cache_permit+0x57d/0x5c0 [kafs] in cc1[562], uid/euid: 0/0

       "I screwed up my merge window pull request; I only sent half of what I
        meant to.
      
        There were no new features, just bugfixes of various importance and
        some very minor cleanup, so I think it's all still appropriate for
        -rc2.
      
        Highlights:
      
         - Fixes from Trond for some races in the NFSv4 state code.
      
         - Fix from Naofumi Honda for a typo in the blocked lock notificiation
           code
      
         - Fixes from Vasily Averin for some problems starting and stopping
           lockd especially in network namespaces"

       "We've collected some fixes in since the pre-merge window freeze.
      
        There's technically only one regression fix for 4.15, but the rest
        seems important and candidates for stable.
      
         - fix missing flush bio puts in error cases (is serious, but rarely
           happens)
      
         - fix reporting stat::st_blocks for buffered append writes
      
         - fix space cache invalidation
      
         - fix out of bound memory access when setting zlib level
      
         - fix potential memory corruption when fsync fails in the middle
      
         - fix crash in integrity checker
      
         - incremetnal send fix, path mixup for certain unlink/rename
           combination
      
         - pass flags to writeback so compressed writes can be throttled
           properly
