6.6-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

From: Pierre Riteau <pierre@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 071ed42cff4fcdd89025d966d48eabef59913bf2 ]

tcf_exts_miss_cookie_base_alloc() calls xa_alloc_cyclic() which can
return 1 if the allocation succeeded after wrapping. This was treated as
an error, with value 1 returned to caller tcf_exts_init_ex() which sets
exts->actions to NULL and returns 1 to caller fl_change().

fl_change() treats err == 1 as success, calling tcf_exts_validate_ex()
which calls tcf_action_init() with exts->actions as argument, where it
is dereferenced.

Example trace:
