4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Junil Lee <junil0814.lee@xxxxxxx>
commit c102f07ca0b04f2cb49cfc161c83f6239d17f491 upstream.
record_obj() in migrate_zspage() does not preserve handle's
HANDLE_PIN_BIT, set by find_aloced_obj()->trypin_tag(), and implicitly
(accidentally) un-pins the handle, while migrate_zspage() still performs
an explicit unpin_tag() on the that handle. This additional explicit
unpin_tag() introduces a race condition with zs_free(), which can pin
that handle by this time, so the handle becomes un-pinned.
Schematically, it goes like this:
CPU0 CPU1
migrate_zspage
find_alloced_obj
trypin_tag
set HANDLE_PIN_BIT zs_free()
pin_tag()
obj_malloc() -- new object, no tag
record_obj() -- remove HANDLE_PIN_BIT set HANDLE_PIN_BIT
unpin_tag() -- remove zs_free's HANDLE_PIN_BIT
The race condition may result in a NULL pointer dereference:
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000

This patch keeps the lock bit in migration path and update value
atomically.
