      can: Fix kernel panic at security_sock_rcv_skb · 2b88a4ce
      Eric Dumazet authored
      [ Upstream commit f1712c73 ]
      
      Zhang Yanmin reported crashes [1] and provided a patch adding a
      synchronize_rcu() call in can_rx_unregister()
      
      The main problem seems that the sockets themselves are not RCU
      protected.
      
      If CAN uses RCU for delivery, then sockets should be freed only after
      one RCU grace period.
      
      Recent kernels could use sock_set_flag(sk, SOCK_RCU_FREE), but let's
      ease stable backports with the following fix instead.

      Revert "af_unix: Fix splice-bind deadlock" · 9547c9a2
      Linus Torvalds authored
      commit 38f7bd94 upstream.
      
      This reverts commit c845acb3.
      
      It turns out that it just replaces one deadlock with another one: we can
      still get the wrong lock ordering with the readlock due to overlayfs
      calling back into the filesystem layer and still taking the vfs locks
      after the readlock.
      
      The proper solution ends up being to just split the readlock into two
      pieces: the bind lock (taken *outside* the vfs locks) and the IO lock
      (taken *inside* the filesystem locks).  The two locks are independent
      anyway.
