[PATCH net 0/4] net: drop_monitor: fix concurrency issues, preemption warning, and buffer overrun
From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com>

This series addresses several issues discovered in the drop_monitor subsystem:
Patch 1 adds missing tracepoint unregistration synchronization to the
net_dm_trace_on_set() error unwind path, preventing in-flight probes
from scheduling work after the module reference has been dropped.
Patch 2 resolves a race condition during monitoring teardown where per-CPU
timers can be re-armed after deletion if a concurrent worker encounters a
memory allocation failure, switching to timer_shutdown_sync().
Patch 3 fixes a CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT warning reported by syzbot when
kfree_skb() is invoked from preemptible process context, using raw_cpu_ptr()
since each per-CPU queue is safely protected by its own spinlock.
Patch 4 fixes an out-of-bounds write in reset_per_cpu_data() where memset()
overwrote the allocated SKB tailroom by sizeof(struct nlattr) bytes.
Eric Dumazet (4):
drop_monitor: synchronize tracepoint unregistration on error path
drop_monitor: use timer_shutdown_sync() to prevent timer rearming
during teardown
drop_monitor: use raw_cpu_ptr() in tracepoint probes
drop_monitor: fix out-of-bounds write in reset_per_cpu_data()
