commit cb0631fd3cf9e989cd48293fe631cbc402aec9a9 upstream.
Syzkaller with KASAN has reported a use-after-free of vma->vm_flags in
__do_page_fault() with the following reproducer:
mmap(&(0x7f0000000000/0xfff000)=nil, 0xfff000, 0x3, 0x32, 0xffffffffffffffff, 0x0)
mmap(&(0x7f0000011000/0x3000)=nil, 0x3000, 0x1, 0x32, 0xffffffffffffffff, 0x0)
r0 = userfaultfd(0x0)
ioctl$UFFDIO_API(r0, 0xc018aa3f, &(0x7f0000002000-0x18)={0xaa, 0x0, 0x0})
ioctl$UFFDIO_REGISTER(r0, 0xc020aa00, &(0x7f0000019000)={{&(0x7f0000012000/0x2000)=nil, 0x2000}, 0x1, 0x0})
r1 = gettid()
syz_open_dev$evdev(&(0x7f0000013000-0x12)="2f6465762f696e7075742f6576656e742300", 0x0, 0x0)
tkill(r1, 0x7)
The vma should be pinned by mmap_sem, but handle_userfault() might (in a
return to userspace scenario) release it and then acquire again, so when
we return to __do_page_fault() (with other result than VM_FAULT_RETRY),
the vma might be gone.
Specifically, per Andrea the scenario is
"A return to userland to repeat the page fault later with a
VM_FAULT_NOPAGE retval (potentially after handling any pending signal
during the return to userland). The return to userland is identified
whenever FAULT_FLAG_USER|FAULT_FLAG_KILLABLE are both set in
vmf->flags"
However, since commit a3c4fb7c9c2e ("x86/mm: Fix fault error path using
unsafe vma pointer") there is a vma_pkey() read of vma->vm_flags after
that point, which can thus become use-after-free. Fix this by moving
the read before calling handle_mm_fault().
