[ Upstream commit 54236ab09e9696a27baaae693c288920a26e8588 ]
sctp_transport_seq_start() does not currently clear iter->start_fail on
success, but relies on it being zero when it is allocated (by
seq_open_net()).
This can be a problem in the following sequence:
open() // allocates iter (and implicitly sets iter->start_fail = 0)
read()
- iter->start() // fails and sets iter->start_fail = 1
- iter->stop() // doesn't call sctp_transport_walk_stop() (correct)
read() again
- iter->start() // succeeds, but doesn't change iter->start_fail
- iter->stop() // doesn't call sctp_transport_walk_stop() (wrong)
We should initialize sctp_ht_iter::start_fail to zero if ->start()
succeeds, otherwise it's possible that we leave an old value of 1 there,
which will cause ->stop() to not call sctp_transport_walk_stop(), which
causes all sorts of problems like not calling rcu_read_unlock() (and
preempt_enable()), eventually leading to more warnings like this:

Notice that this is a subtly different stacktrace from the one in commit
5fc382d875 ("net/sctp: terminate rhashtable walk correctly").
