[PATCH] block, bfq: free 'sync_bfqq' after bic_set_bfqq() in bfq_sync_bfqq_move()

[PATCH] block, bfq: free 'sync_bfqq' after bic_set_bfqq() in bfq_sync_bfqq_move()

[Yu Kuai]

From: Yu Kuai <yukuai3@huawei.com>

As explained in commit b600de2d7d3a ("block, bfq: fix uaf for bfqq in
bic_set_bfqq()"), bfqq should not be freed before bic_set_bfqq().
However, this is broken while merging commit 9778369a2d6c ("block, bfq:
split sync bfq_queues on a per-actuator basis") from branch
for-6.3/block.

Fixes: 9778369a2d6c ("block, bfq: split sync bfq_queues on a per-actuator basis")

The patch looks OK to me, but the commit message is not super clear. What is
broken exactly ?

1) bfq_sync_bfqq_move() is introduced in commit 9778369a2d6c ("block,
bfq: split sync bfq_queues on a per-actuator basis"), which is merged to
block/for-6.3 branch.

2) commit 64dc8c732f5c ("block, bfq: fix possible uaf for 'bfqq->bic'")
is merged to mainline.

3) later, the fix for 2) b600de2d7d3a ("block, bfq: fix uaf for bfqq in
bic_set_bfqq()") is merged to mainline as well, however,
bfq_sync_bfqq_move() in block/for-6.3 branch is not changed.

4) At last, 1) is merged to mainline and bfq_sync_bfqq_move() is
still problematic.

Thanks,
Kuai

This is already in -git, see my reply to Linus. Eg this will apply
to for-6.3/block, but it will not apply to current master that
has it merged because we got that from the 6.2 side.
