This means sock_close() could race with sockfs_setattr(), which leads to a NULL pointer dereference since typically we set sock->sk to NULL in ->release(). As pointed out by Al, this is unique to sockfs. So we can fix this in socket layer by acquiring inode_lock in sock_close() and checking against NULL in sockfs_setattr(). sock_release() is called in many places, only the sock_close() path matters here. And fortunately, this should not affect normal sock_close() as it is only called when the last fd refcnt is gone. It only affects sock_close() with a parallel sockfs_setattr() in progress, which is not common. Fixes: 86741ec25462 ("net: core: Add a UID field to struct sock.")
