3.16.52-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@xxxxxxx> commit 79fb0518fec8c8b4ea7f1729f54f293724b3dbb0 upstream. The races among ioctl and other operations were protected by the commit af368027a49a ("ALSA: timer: Fix race among timer ioctls") and later fixes, but one code path was forgotten in the scenario: the 32bit compat ioctl. As syzkaller recently spotted, a very similar use-after-free may happen with the combination of compat ioctls. The fix is simply to apply the same ioctl_lock to the compat_ioctl callback, too.
