This patch fixes a race found by Ram in mark_mounts_for_expiry() in
fs/namespace.c.
The bug can only be triggered with simultaneous exiting of a process having
a private namespace, and expiry of a mount from within that namespace.
It's practically impossible to trigger, and I haven't even tried. But
still, a bug is a bug.
The race happens when put_namespace() is called by another task, while
mark_mounts_for_expiry() is between atomic_read() and get_namespace(). In
that case get_namespace() will be called on an already dead namespace with
unforeseeable results.
The solution was suggested by Al Viro, with his own words:
Instead of screwing with atomic_read() in there, why don't we
simply do the following:
a) atomic_dec_and_lock() in put_namespace()
b) __put_namespace() called without dropping lock
c) the first thing done by __put_namespace would be
struct vfsmount *root = namespace->root;
namespace->root = NULL;
spin_unlock(...);
....
umount_tree(root);
...
d) check in mark_... would be simply namespace && namespace->root.
And we are all set; no screwing around with atomic_read(), no magic
at all. Dying namespace gets NULL ->root.
All changes of ->root happen under spinlock.
If under a spinlock we see non-NULL ->mnt_namespace, it won't be
freed until we drop the lock (we will set ->mnt_namespace to NULL
under that lock before we get to freeing namespace).
If under a spinlock we see non-NULL ->mnt_namespace and
->mnt_namespace->root, we can grab a reference to namespace and be
sure that it won't go away.
