Charan Teja Kalla 722c6e954c dmabuf: use spinlock to access dmabuf->name 
[ Upstream commit 6348dd291e ]

There exists a sleep-while-atomic bug while accessing the dmabuf->name
under mutex in the dmabuffs_dname(). This is caused from the SELinux
permissions checks on a process where it tries to validate the inherited
files from fork() by traversing them through iterate_fd() (which
traverse files under spin_lock) and call
match_file(security/selinux/hooks.c) where the permission checks happen.
This audit information is logged using dump_common_audit_data() where it
calls d_path() to get the file path name. If the file check happen on
the dmabuf's fd, then it ends up in ->dmabuffs_dname() and use mutex to
access dmabuf->name. The flow will be like below:
flush_unauthorized_files()
  iterate_fd()
    spin_lock() --> Start of the atomic section.
      match_file()
        file_has_perm()
          avc_has_perm()
            avc_audit()
              slow_avc_audit()
	        common_lsm_audit()
		  dump_common_audit_data()
		    audit_log_d_path()
		      d_path()
                        dmabuffs_dname()
                          mutex_lock()--> Sleep while atomic.

Call trace captured (on 4.19 kernels) is below:
___might_sleep+0x204/0x208
__might_sleep+0x50/0x88
__mutex_lock_common+0x5c/0x1068
__mutex_lock_common+0x5c/0x1068

slow_avc_audit+0xb8/0xf8
avc_has_perm+0x154/0x218
file_has_perm+0x70/0x180
match_file+0x60/0x78
iterate_fd+0x128/0x168
selinux_bprm_committing_creds+0x178/0x248
security_bprm_committing_creds+0x30/0x48
install_exec_creds+0x1c/0x68
load_elf_binary+0x3a4/0x14e0
search_binary_handler+0xb0/0x1e0

So, use spinlock to access dmabuf->name to avoid sleep-while-atomic.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
