4.9.115-rt94-rc1 stable review patch. If you have any objection to the inclusion of this patch, let me know.

--- 8< --- 8< --- 8< --- [ Upstream commit 51d00899f7e6ded15c89cb4e2cb11a35283bac81 ]

Dmitry (through syzbot) reported being able to trigger the WARN in get_pi_state() and a use-after-free on:

raw_spin_lock_irq(&pi_state->pi_mutex.wait_lock);

Both are due to this race:

exit_pi_state_list() put_pi_state()

lock(&curr->pi_lock) while() { pi_state = list_first_entry(head); hb = hash_futex(&pi_state->key); unlock(&curr->pi_lock);

dec_and_test(&pi_state->refcount);

lock(&hb->lock) lock(&pi_state->pi_mutex.wait_lock) // uaf if pi_state free'd lock(&curr->pi_lock);

....

unlock(&curr->pi_lock); get_pi_state(); // WARN; refcount==0

The problem is we take the reference count too late, and don't allow it being 0. Fix it by using inc_not_zero() and simply retrying the loop when we fail to get a refcount. In that case put_pi_state() should remove the entry from the list.
