The following patches could not be applied without conflicts in this
tree:

- 2b0f561f21b2 ("mptcp: avoid unneeded actions on subflow reset")
- 42064de57fb8 ("mptcp: close race between scheduler and state change")
- f3ef03357396 ("mptcp: fix bad accounting in __mptcp_subflow_push_pending()")

I backported the following commits to avoid conflicts:

- 581c8cbfa934 ("mptcp: annotate data-races around subflow->fully_established")
- caa4a79f74f3 ("mptcp: remove unneeded READ_ONCE() annotation")

Conflicts (if any) have been resolved, and documented in each patch.

From: Gang Yan <yangang@kylinos.cn>

commit 581c8cbfa934aaa555daa4e843242fcecc160f05 upstream.

We introduce the same handling for potential data races with the
'fully_established' flag in subflow as previously done for
msk->fully_established.

Additionally, we make a crucial change: convert the subflow's
'fully_established' from 'bit_field' to 'bool' type. This is
necessary because methods for avoiding data races don't work well
with 'bit_field'. Specifically, the 'READ_ONCE' needs to know
the size of the variable being accessed, which is not supported in
'bit_field'. Also, 'test_bit' expect the address of 'bit_field'.

From: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@redhat.com>

commit caa4a79f74f32084ce28aee8653bc04df745970d upstream.

The subflow->fully_established flag is always written under the subflow
socket lock. Reading such value under the same lock does not require any
ONCE annotation.

From: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@redhat.com>

commit 2b0f561f21b27c40c91ea4975268a06092bd7e9c upstream.

Once in a blue moon, the mptcp receive path can recursively call
mptcp_data_ready() via state change under unlucky error conditions, and
then try to hold the data lock again.

Break the recursion loop explicitly checking for the exceptional
condition.

Add a new flag instead of using an existing one like 'closing', to exit
early in subflow_state_change(), and explicitly flush the RX queue at
reset time.

This avoids unneeded processing to check for available data -- calling
get_mapping_status() and more on a dying subflow -- but also in error
reporting and worker scheduling.

Note that we must consume the currently peeked skb before invoking
mptcp_dss_corruption to avoid consuming it again after the eventual
reset has freed it.

From: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@redhat.com>

commit 42064de57fb83231fcc89663a94885f228a1ee53 upstream.

The mptcp scheduler may race with subflow sockets state change: data
transmission on the selected socket may fail and a later release could
try to use mss_now reset to 0 for a divide operation.

Address the issue by explicitly checking for the critical scenario.
