4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit 040757f738e13caaa9c5078bca79aa97e11dde88 upstream.
Always increment/decrement ucount->count under the ucounts_lock. The
increments are there already and moving the decrements there means the
locking logic of the code is simpler. This simplification in the
locking logic fixes a race between put_ucounts and get_ucounts that
could result in a use-after-free because the count could go zero then
be found by get_ucounts and then be freed by put_ucounts.
A bug presumably this one was found by a combination of syzkaller and
KASAN. JongWhan Kim reported the syzkaller failure and Dmitry Vyukov
spotted the race in the code.
Fixes: f6b2db1a3e8d ("userns: Make the count of user namespaces per user")
