If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Sven Eckelmann commit cf6b604011591865ae39ac82de8978c1120d17af upstream. When batadv_bla_purge_claims() goes through the list of claims, it is only traversing the hash list with an rcu_read_lock(). Due to a potential parallel batadv_claim_put(), it can happen that it encounters a claim which was actually in the process of being released+freed by batadv_claim_release(). In this case, backbone_gw is set to NULL before the delayed RCU kfree is started. Calling batadv_bla_claim_get_backbone_gw() is then no longer allowed because it would cause a NULL-ptr derefence. To avoid this, only claims with a valid reference counter must be purged. All others are already taken care of.
