netfilter: fix race condition in ipset save and delete
This fix adds a new reference counter (ref_kernel) for the struct ip_set.
The other reference counter (ref) is used to track references from the
userspace and we need a separate counter to keep track of in-kernel
references. Using the same ref counter for both userspace and kernel
references causes a race condition which can be demonstrated by the
following script:
#!/bin/sh
ipset create hash_ip1 hash:ip family inet hashsize 1024 maxelem 500000 \
counters
ipset create hash_ip2 hash:ip family inet hashsize 300000 maxelem 500000 \
counters
ipset create hash_ip3 hash:ip family inet hashsize 1024 maxelem 500000 \
counters
ipset save &
ipset swap hash_ip3 hash_ip2
ipset destroy hash_ip3 /* will crash the machine */
Swap will exchange the values of ref so destroy will see ref = 0 instead of
ref = 1. With this fix in place swap will not suceed because ipset save
still has ref_kernel on the set (ip_set_swap doesn't swap ref_kernel).
Both delete and swap will error out if ref_kernel != 0 on the set.
Note: The changes to *_head functions is because previously we would
increment ref whenever we called these functions, we don't do that
anymore.
