3.19.8-ckt5 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Filipe Manana <fdmanana@xxxxxxxx> commit d3efe08400317888f559bbedf0e42cd31575d0ef upstream. When we call btrfs_commit_transaction(), we splice the list "ordered" of our transaction handle into the transaction's "pending_ordered" list, but we don't re-initialize the "ordered" list of our transaction handle, this means it still points to the same elements it used to before the splice. Then we check if the current transaction's state is >= TRANS_STATE_COMMIT_START and if it is we end up calling btrfs_end_transaction() which simply splices again the "ordered" list of our handle into the transaction's "pending_ordered" list, leaving multiple pointers to the same ordered extents which results in list corruption when we are iterating, removing and freeing ordered extents at btrfs_wait_pending_ordered(), resulting in access to dangling pointers / use-after-free issues. Similarly, btrfs_end_transaction() can end up in some cases calling btrfs_commit_transaction(), and both did a list splice of the transaction handle's "ordered" list into the transaction's "pending_ordered" without re-initializing the handle's "ordered" list, resulting in exactly the same problem. This produces the following warning on a kernel with linked list debugging enabled: [109749.265416] ------------[ cut here ]------------ [109749.266410] WARNING: CPU: 7 PID: 324 at lib/list_debug.c:59 __list_del_entry+0x5a/0x98() [109749.267969] list_del corruption. prev->next should be ffff8800ba087e20, but was fffffff8c1f7c35d (...)

Fix this by using list_splice_init() instead of list_splice() in btrfs_commit_transaction() and btrfs_end_transaction().
