Syzbot found a corrupted list bug scenario that can be triggered from cgroup_subtree_control_write(cgrp). The reproduces writes to cgroup.subtree_control file, which invokes: cgroup_apply_control_enable()->css_create()->css_populate_dir(), which then fails with a fault injected -ENOMEM. In such scenario the css_killed_work_fn will be en-queued via cgroup_apply_control_disable(cgrp)->kill_css(css), and bail out to cgroup_kn_unlock(). Then cgroup_kn_unlock() will call: cgroup_put(cgrp)->css_put(&cgrp->self), which will try to enqueue css_release_work_fn for the same css instance, causing a list_add corruption bug, as can be seen in the syzkaller report [1]. Fix this by synchronizing the css ref_kill and css_release jobs. css_release() function will check if the css_killed_work_fn() has been scheduled for the css and only en-queue the css_release_work_fn() if css_killed_work_fn wasn't already en-queued. Otherwise css_release() will set the CSS_REL_LATER flag for that css. This will cause the css_release_work_fn() work to be executed after css_killed_work_fn() is finished. Two scc flags have been introduced to implement this serialization mechanizm: * CSS_KILL_ENQED, which will be set when css_killed_work_fn() is en-queued, and * CSS_REL_LATER, which, if set, will cause the css_release_work_fn() to be scheduled after the css_killed_work_fn is finished. There is also a new lock, which will protect the integrity of the css flags.
