From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 39f13ea2f61b439ebe0060393e9c39925c9ee28c ] tc_ctl_action() has the ability to loop forever if tcf_action_add() returns -EAGAIN. This special case has been done in case a module needed to be loaded, but it turns out that tcf_add_notify() could also return -EAGAIN if the socket sk_rcvbuf limit is hit. We need to separate the two cases, and only loop for the module loading case. While we are at it, add a limit of 10 attempts since unbounded loops are always scary. syzbot repro was something like : socket(PF_NETLINK, SOCK_RAW|SOCK_NONBLOCK, NETLINK_ROUTE) = 3 write(3, ..., 38) = 38 setsockopt(3, SOL_SOCKET, SO_RCVBUF, [0], 4) = 0 sendmsg(3, {msg_name(0)=NULL, msg_iov(1)=[{..., 388}], msg_controllen=0, msg_flags=0x10}, ...)
