Paul Gortmaker df34f88862 cgroup1: fix leaked context root causing sporadic NULL deref in LTP 
commit 1e7107c5ef44431bc1ebbd4c353f1d7c22e5f2ec upstream.

Richard reported sporadic (roughly one in 10 or so) null dereferences and
other strange behaviour for a set of automated LTP tests.  Things like:

   BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000008
   #PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode
   #PF: error_code(0x0000) - not-present page
   PGD 0 P4D 0
   Oops: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP PTI
   CPU: 0 PID: 1516 Comm: umount Not tainted 5.10.0-yocto-standard #1
   Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (Q35 + ICH9, 2009), BIOS rel-1.13.0-48-gd9c812dda519-prebuilt.qemu.org 04/01/2014
   RIP: 0010:kernfs_sop_show_path+0x1b/0x60

...or these others:

   RIP: 0010:do_mkdirat+0x6a/0xf0
   RIP: 0010:d_alloc_parallel+0x98/0x510
   RIP: 0010:do_readlinkat+0x86/0x120

There were other less common instances of some kind of a general scribble
but the common theme was mount and cgroup and a dubious dentry triggering
the NULL dereference.  I was only able to reproduce it under qemu by
replicating Richard's setup as closely as possible - I never did get it
to happen on bare metal, even while keeping everything else the same.

In commit 71d883c37e ("cgroup_do_mount(): massage calling conventions")
we see this as a part of the overall change:

   --------------
           struct cgroup_subsys *ss;
   -       struct dentry *dentry;

   [...]

   -       dentry = cgroup_do_mount(&cgroup_fs_type, fc->sb_flags, root,
   -                                CGROUP_SUPER_MAGIC, ns);

   [...]

   -       if (percpu_ref_is_dying(&root->cgrp.self.refcnt)) {
   -               struct super_block *sb = dentry->d_sb;
   -               dput(dentry);
   +       ret = cgroup_do_mount(fc, CGROUP_SUPER_MAGIC, ns);
   +       if (!ret && percpu_ref_is_dying(&root->cgrp.self.refcnt)) {
   +               struct super_block *sb = fc->root->d_sb;
   +               dput(fc->root);
                   deactivate_locked_super(sb);
                   msleep(10);
                   return restart_syscall();
           }
   --------------

In changing from the local "*dentry" variable to using fc->root, we now
export/leave that dentry pointer in the file context after doing the dput()
in the unlikely "is_dying" case.   With LTP doing a crazy amount of back to
back mount/unmount [testcases/bin/cgroup_regression_5_1.sh] the unlikely
becomes slightly likely and then bad things happen.

A fix would be to not leave the stale reference in fc->root as follows:

   --------------
                  dput(fc->root);
  +               fc->root = NULL;
                  deactivate_locked_super(sb);
   --------------

...but then we are just open-coding a duplicate of fc_drop_locked() so we
simply use that instead.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
