[PATCH 4.14 283/496] net/sched: fix idr leak in the error path of __tcf_ipt_init()

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman

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

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

From: Davide Caratti <dcaratti@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 1e46ef1762bb2e52f0f996131a4d16ed4e9fd065 ]

__tcf_ipt_init() can fail after the idr has been successfully reserved.
When this happens, subsequent attempts to configure xt/ipt rules using
the same idr value systematically fail with -ENOSPC:

# tc action add action xt -j LOG --log-prefix test1 index 100
tablename: mangle hook: NF_IP_POST_ROUTING
target: LOG level warning prefix "test1" index 100
RTNETLINK answers: Cannot allocate memory
We have an error talking to the kernel
Command "(null)" is unknown, try "tc actions help".
# tc action add action xt -j LOG --log-prefix test1 index 100
tablename: mangle hook: NF_IP_POST_ROUTING
target: LOG level warning prefix "test1" index 100
RTNETLINK answers: No space left on device

...

Fix this in the error path of __tcf_ipt_init(), calling tcf_idr_release()
in place of tcf_idr_cleanup(). Since tcf_ipt_release() can now be called
when tcfi_t is NULL, we also need to protect calls to ipt_destroy_target()
to avoid NULL pointer dereference.
