[PATCH 5.14 428/849] kernel/sched: Fix sched_fork() access an invalid sched_task_group
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman

[ Upstream commit 4ef0c5c6b5ba1f38f0ea1cedad0cad722f00c14a ]
There is a small race between copy_process() and sched_fork()
where child->sched_task_group point to an already freed pointer.
parent doing fork() | someone moving the parent
| to another cgroup
-------------------------------+-------------------------------
copy_process()
+ dup_task_struct()<1>
parent move to another cgroup,
and free the old cgroup. <2>
+ sched_fork()
+ __set_task_cpu()<3>
+ task_fork_fair()
+ sched_slice()<4>
In the worst case, this bug can lead to "use-after-free" and
cause panic as shown above:
(1) parent copy its sched_task_group to child at <1>;
(2) someone move the parent to another cgroup and free the old
cgroup at <2>;
(3) the sched_task_group and cfs_rq that belong to the old cgroup
will be accessed at <3> and <4>, which cause a panic:

Between cgroup_can_fork() and cgroup_post_fork(), the cgroup
membership and thus sched_task_group can't change. So update child's
sched_task_group at sched_post_fork() and move task_fork() and
__set_task_cpu() (where accees the sched_task_group) from sched_fork()
to sched_post_fork().
