From: "Paul E. McKenney" <paulmck at kernel.org>
commit 8ed00760203d8018bee042fbfe8e076579be2c2b upstream.
Currently, cleanup_srcu_struct() checks for a grace period in progress,
but it does not check for a grace period that has not yet started but
which might start at any time. Such a situation could result in a
use-after-free bug, so this commit adds a check for a grace period that
is needed but not yet started to cleanup_srcu_struct().
Fixes: da915ad5cf25 ("srcu: Parallelize callback handling")
Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck at kernel.org>
[ kovalev: backport to fix CVE-2022-49651; added Fixes tag for commit
da915ad5cf25 that introduced the srcu_gp_seq_needed field and the
race condition between grace period requests and cleanup ]
