Subject[PATCH 3.11 224/233] sit: fix double free of fb_tunnel_dev on exit
Date
3.11.10.4 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Nicolas Dichtel <nicolas.dichtel@6wind.com>

[ No relevant upstream commit. ]

This problem was fixed upstream by commit 9434266f2c64 ("sit: fix use after free
of fb_tunnel_dev").
The upstream patch depends on upstream commit 5e6700b3bf98 ("sit: add support of
x-netns"), which was not backported into 3.10 branch.

First, explain the problem: when the sit module is unloaded, sit_cleanup() is
called.
rmmod sit
=> sit_cleanup()
=> rtnl_link_unregister()
=> __rtnl_kill_links()
=> for_each_netdev(net, dev) {
if (dev->rtnl_link_ops == ops)
ops->dellink(dev, &list_kill);
}
At this point, the FB device is deleted (and all sit tunnels).
=> unregister_pernet_device()
=> unregister_pernet_operations()
=> ops_exit_list()
=> sit_exit_net()
=> sit_destroy_tunnels()
In this function, no tunnel is found.
=> unregister_netdevice_queue(sitn->fb_tunnel_dev, &list);
We delete the FB device a second time here!

Because we cannot simply remove the second deletion (sit_exit_net() must remove
the FB device when a netns is deleted), we add an rtnl ops which delete all sit
device excepting the FB device and thus we can keep the explicit deletion in
sit_exit_net().
