[PATCH 4.4 003/163] x86/mce: Avoid using object after free in genpool
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon May 02 2016 - 21:48:10 EST
4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Tony Luck <tony.luck@xxxxxxxxx>
commit a3125494cff084b098c80bb36fbe2061ffed9d52 upstream.
When we loop over all queued machine check error records to pass them
to the registered notifiers we use llist_for_each_entry(). But the loop
calls gen_pool_free() for the entry in the body of the loop - and then
the iterator looks at node->next after the free.
Use llist_for_each_entry_safe() instead.
