Was looking at tcfg_gate_entry and tcf_gate along with this instance of nla_put, but I can't find my notes and I don't see the path currently. Like I said, remove it, I don't care.

    if (nla_put(skb, TCA_GATE_PARMS, sizeof(opt), &opt))
        goto nla_put_failure;

To be clear : we have the same pattern in a dozen of net/sched/act_*c files.
syzbot already found the problematic ones :

- net/sched/act_ife.c
- net/sched/act_connmark.c
- net/sched/act_ct.c
- net/sched/act_skbmod.c

We already checked all other files.

Unless another maintainer proves me wrong, let's remove this patch
from your series.

I have months invested into the UAF though and only just in the past 24 hours was able to stabilize into user space, so no effort whatsoever has been put into defeating kaslr or anything requiring infoleak.

Look forward to more input on the much larger issue at hand.

Sure, thanks for working on this.
