[PATCH net] tipc: serialize udp bearer replicast list updates
From: Weiming Shi <hidden>

tipc_udp_rcast_add() and cleanup_bearer() both update ub->rcast.list
with list_add_rcu() / list_del_rcu(), but nothing serializes them. The
add runs from the encap receive softirq (via tipc_udp_rcast_disc())
without rtnl_lock(), so it can race the cleanup delete and corrupt the
list:
list_del corruption. prev->next should be ffff8880298d7ab8,
but was ffff88802449ad38. (prev=ffff888027e3ec98)
kernel BUG at lib/list_debug.c:62!
RIP: __list_del_entry_valid_or_report+0x17a/0x200
Workqueue: events cleanup_bearer
Call Trace:
cleanup_bearer (net/tipc/udp_media.c:811)
process_one_work (kernel/workqueue.c:3302)
worker_thread (kernel/workqueue.c:3466)
The bearer can be enabled from an unprivileged user namespace, as the
TIPCv2 generic-netlink ops carry no GENL_ADMIN_PERM.
Add a spinlock and take it around both list updates. Re-check for the
peer under the lock in the add path so the check-then-add in
tipc_udp_rcast_disc() cannot insert a duplicate.
