[PATCH 6.12 037/403] tracing: Fix use-after-free in trace_pipe read on sub-buffer order change

6.12-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Deepanshu Kartikey <redacted>

commit 372f8534244d632ad5118e8a87a11291b01712d3 upstream.

Writing to buffer_subbuf_size_kb calls ring_buffer_subbuf_order_set(),
which frees every sub-buffer of the ring buffer, including the reader
page, and replaces them with newly allocated ones.

Readers of trace_pipe hold pointers into those pages. ring_buffer_peek()
looks up an event under cpu_buffer->reader_lock but returns the event
pointer after dropping the lock, and peek_next_entry() then calls
ring_buffer_event_length() and ring_buffer_event_data() on it. If the
sub-buffer order is changed in that window, the reader dereferences
freed memory:

  BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in ring_buffer_peek+0x3e0/0x430
  Read of size 1 at addr ffff88802a4cf010 by task syz-executor989/6002

  Freed by:
   free_buffer_page kernel/trace/ring_buffer.c:398 [inline]
   ring_buffer_subbuf_order_set+0x1325/0x18e0 kernel/trace/ring_buffer.c:7444
   buffer_subbuf_size_write+0x182/0x280 kernel/trace/trace.c:8221

Take trace_access_lock(RING_BUFFER_ALL_CPUS) around the order change.
This is the lock trace_pipe readers already hold across their entire
peek-and-print loop, so the swap can no longer race with a reader that
is dereferencing a peeked event.
