[PATCH 5.15.y 2/2] ALSA: pcm: fix use-after-free on linked stream runtime in snd_pcm_drain()

[Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>]

From: Mehul Rao <mehulrao@gmail.com>

[ Upstream commit 9b1dbd69ba6f8f8c69bc7b77c2ce3b9c6ed05ba6 ]

In the drain loop, the local variable 'runtime' is reassigned to a
linked stream's runtime (runtime = s->runtime at line 2157).  After
releasing the stream lock at line 2169, the code accesses
runtime->no_period_wakeup, runtime->rate, and runtime->buffer_size
(lines 2170-2178) — all referencing the linked stream's runtime without
any lock or refcount protecting its lifetime.

A concurrent close() on the linked stream's fd triggers
snd_pcm_release_substream() → snd_pcm_drop() → pcm_release_private()
→ snd_pcm_unlink() → snd_pcm_detach_substream() → kfree(runtime).
No synchronization prevents kfree(runtime) from completing while the
drain path dereferences the stale pointer.

Fix by caching the needed runtime fields (no_period_wakeup, rate,
buffer_size) into local variables while still holding the stream lock,
and using the cached values after the lock is released.
