[PATCH 3.16 157/157] scsi: libsas: fix a race condition when smp task timeout

From: Ben Hutchings

3.16.72-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Jason Yan <yanaijie@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit b90cd6f2b905905fb42671009dc0e27c310a16ae upstream.

When the lldd is processing the complete sas task in interrupt and set the
task stat as SAS_TASK_STATE_DONE, the smp timeout timer is able to be
triggered at the same time. And smp_task_timedout() will complete the task
wheter the SAS_TASK_STATE_DONE is set or not. Then the sas task may freed
before lldd end the interrupt process. Thus a use-after-free will happen.

Fix this by calling the complete() only when SAS_TASK_STATE_DONE is not
set. And remove the check of the return value of the del_timer(). Once the
LLDD sets DONE, it must call task->done(), which will call
smp_task_done()->complete() and the task will be completed and freed
correctly.
