[PATCH 2.6.32 17/55] PCI/AER: Flush workqueue on device remove to avoid use-after-free

[Willy Tarreau <w@1wt.eu>]

2.6.32-longterm review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@linutronix.de>

commit 4ae2182b1e3407de369f8c5d799543b7db74221b upstream.

A Root Port's AER structure (rpc) contains a queue of events.  aer_irq()
enqueues AER status information and schedules aer_isr() to dequeue and
process it.  When we remove a device, aer_remove() waits for the queue to
be empty, then frees the rpc struct.

But aer_isr() references the rpc struct after dequeueing and possibly
emptying the queue, which can cause a use-after-free error as in the
following scenario with two threads, aer_isr() on the left and a
concurrent aer_remove() on the right:

  Thread A                      Thread B
  --------                      --------
  aer_irq():
    rpc->prod_idx++
                                aer_remove():
                                  wait_event(rpc->prod_idx == rpc->cons_idx)
                                  # now blocked until queue becomes empty
  aer_isr():                      # ...
    rpc->cons_idx++               # unblocked because queue is now empty
    ...                           kfree(rpc)
    mutex_unlock(&rpc->rpc_mutex)

To prevent this problem, use flush_work() to wait until the last scheduled
instance of aer_isr() has completed before freeing the rpc struct in
aer_remove().

I reproduced this use-after-free by flashing a device FPGA and
re-enumerating the bus to find the new device.  With SLUB debug, this
crashes with 0x6b bytes (POISON_FREE, the use-after-free magic number) in
GPR25:

  pcieport 0000:00:00.0: AER: Multiple Corrected error received: id=0000
  Unable to handle kernel paging request for data at address 0x27ef9e3e
  Workqueue: events aer_isr
  GPR24: dd6aa000 6b6b6b6b 605f8378 605f8360 d99b12c0 604fc674 606b1704 d99b12c0
