From: Cong Wang <xiyou.wangcong@xxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit b1be2e8cd290f620777bfdb8aa00890cd2fa02b5 ] syzbot reported a use-after-free in tcindex_dump(). This is due to the lack of RTNL in the deferred rcu work. We queue this work with RTNL in tcindex_change(), later, tcindex_dump() is called: fh = tp->ops->get(tp, t->tcm_handle); ... err = tp->ops->change(..., &fh, ...); tfilter_notify(..., fh, ...); but there is nothing to serialize the pending tcindex_partial_destroy_work() with tcindex_dump(). Fix this by simply holding RTNL in tcindex_partial_destroy_work(), so that it won't be called until RTNL is released after tc_new_tfilter() is completed.
