Merge tag 'vfs-6.14-rc4.fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs
Pull vfs fixes from Christian Brauner:
"It was reported that the acct(2) system call can be used to trigger a
NULL deref in cases where it is set to write to a file that triggers
an internal lookup.
This can e.g., happen when pointing acct(2) to /sys/power/resume. At
the point the where the write to this file happens the calling task
has already exited and called exit_fs() but an internal lookup might
be triggered through lookup_bdev(). This may trigger a NULL-deref when
accessing current->fs.
Reorganize the code so that the the final write happens from the
workqueue but with the caller's credentials. This preserves the
(strange) permission model and has almost no regression risk.
Also block access to kernel internal filesystems as well as procfs and
sysfs in the first place.
Various fixes for netfslib:
- Fix a number of read-retry hangs, including:
- Incorrect getting/putting of references on subreqs as we retry
them
- Failure to track whether a last old subrequest in a retried set
is superfluous
- Inconsistency in the usage of wait queues used for subrequests
(ie. using clear_and_wake_up_bit() whilst waiting on a private
waitqueue)
- Add stats counters for retries and publish in /proc/fs/netfs/stats.
This is not a fix per se, but is useful in debugging and shouldn't
otherwise change the operation of the code
- Fix the ordering of queuing subrequests with respect to setting the
request flag that says we've now queued them all"
