[ Upstream commit cc9b364bb1d58d3dae270c7a931a8cc717dc2b3b ]
There are race conditions that may lead to inet6_dev refcount underflow
in xfrm6_dst_destroy() and rt6_uncached_list_flush_dev().
One of the refcount underflow bugs is shown below:
(cpu 1) | (cpu 2)
xfrm6_dst_destroy() |
... |
in6_dev_put() |
| rt6_uncached_list_flush_dev()
... | ...
| in6_dev_put()
rt6_uncached_list_del() | ...
... |
xfrm6_dst_destroy() calls rt6_uncached_list_del() after in6_dev_put(),
so rt6_uncached_list_flush_dev() has a chance to call in6_dev_put()
again for the same inet6_dev.
Fix it by moving in6_dev_put() after rt6_uncached_list_del() in
xfrm6_dst_destroy().

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
