4.10-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit 49ec8f5b6ae3ab60385492cad900ffc8a523c895 upstream.
The rdtgroup_kn_unlock waits for the last user to release and put its
node. But it's calling kernfs_put on the node which calls the
rdtgroup_kn_unlock, which might not be the group's directory node, but
another group's file node.
This race could be easily reproduced by running 2 instances
of following script:
mount -t resctrl resctrl /sys/fs/resctrl/
pushd /sys/fs/resctrl/
mkdir krava
echo "krava" > krava/schemata
rmdir krava
popd
umount /sys/fs/resctrl
It triggers the slub debug error message with following command
line config: slub_debug=,kernfs_node_cache.
Call kernfs_put on the group's node to fix it.
Fixes: 60cf5e101fd4 ("x86/intel_rdt: Add mkdir to resctrl file system")
