Subject: l2tp: fix race in pppol2tp_release with session object destroy

From: James Chapman <jchapman@katalix.com>


[ Upstream commit d02ba2a6110c530a32926af8ad441111774d2893 ]

pppol2tp_release uses call_rcu to put the final ref on its socket. But
the session object doesn't hold a ref on the session socket so may be
freed while the pppol2tp_put_sk RCU callback is scheduled. Fix this by
having the session hold a ref on its socket until the session is
destroyed. It is this ref that is dropped via call_rcu.

Sessions are also deleted via l2tp_tunnel_closeall. This must now also put
the final ref via call_rcu. So move the call_rcu call site into
pppol2tp_session_close so that this happens in both destroy paths. A
common destroy path should really be implemented, perhaps with
l2tp_tunnel_closeall calling l2tp_session_delete like pppol2tp_release
does, but this will be looked at later.
