[PATCH 02/10] xfrm: fix stale skb->prev after async crypto steals a GSO segment

[Steffen Klassert <steffen.klassert@secunet.com>]

From: Petr Wozniak <petr.wozniak@gmail.com>

skb_gso_segment() leaves the segment list head with ->prev pointing at
the last segment, an invariant validate_xmit_skb_list() relies on when
it sets its tail pointer (tail = skb->prev).

When validate_xmit_xfrm() walks a GSO list and some segments are stolen
by async crypto (->xmit() returns -EINPROGRESS), those segments are
unlinked from the list but the head ->prev is never updated.  If the
last segment is the one stolen, the returned head still has ->prev
pointing at it, even though it is now owned by the crypto engine and may
be freed.  validate_xmit_skb_list() later does tail->next = skb, writing
through that stale pointer -- a use-after-free.

Repoint skb->prev at the last retained segment before returning.

Fixes: f53c723902d1 ("net: Add asynchronous callbacks for xfrm on layer 2.")
