Eric Paris 9f0d793b52 fsnotify: do not set group for a mark before it is on the i_list
fsnotify_add_mark is supposed to add a mark to the g_list and i_list and to
set the group and inode for the mark.  fsnotify_destroy_mark_by_entry uses
the fact that ->group != NULL to know if this group should be destroyed or
if it's already been done.

But fsnotify_add_mark sets the group and inode before it actually adds the
mark to the i_list and g_list.  This can result in a race in inotify, it
requires 3 threads.

sys_inotify_add_watch("file")	sys_inotify_add_watch("file")	sys_inotify_rm_watch([a])
inotify_update_watch()
inotify_new_watch()
inotify_add_to_idr()
   ^--- returns wd = [a]
				inotfiy_update_watch()
				inotify_new_watch()
				inotify_add_to_idr()
				fsnotify_add_mark()
				   ^--- returns wd = [b]
				returns to userspace;
								inotify_idr_find([a])
								   ^--- gives us the pointer from task 1
fsnotify_add_mark()
   ^--- this is going to set the mark->group and mark->inode fields, but will
return -EEXIST because of the race with [b].
								fsnotify_destroy_mark()
								   ^--- since ->group != NULL we call back
									into inotify_freeing_mark() which calls
								inotify_remove_from_idr([a])

since fsnotify_add_mark() failed we call:
inotify_remove_from_idr([a])     <------WHOOPS it's not in the idr, this could
					have been any entry added later!

The fix is to make sure we don't set mark->group until we are sure the mark is
on the inode and fsnotify_add_mark will return success.

/*
* fsnotify inode mark locking/lifetime/and refcnting
*
* REFCNT:
* The mark->refcnt tells how many "things" in the kernel currently are
* referencing this object. The object typically will live inside the kernel
* with a refcnt of 2, one for each list it is on (i_list, g_list). Any task
* which can find this object holding the appropriete locks, can take a reference
* and the object itself is guarenteed to survive until the reference is dropped.
*
* LOCKING:
* There are 3 spinlocks involved with fsnotify inode marks and they MUST
* be taken in order as follows:
*
* entry->lock
* group->mark_lock
* inode->i_lock
*
* entry->lock protects 2 things, entry->group and entry->inode. You must hold
* that lock to dereference either of these things (they could be NULL even with
* the lock)
*
* group->mark_lock protects the mark_entries list anchored inside a given group
* and each entry is hooked via the g_list. It also sorta protects the
* free_g_list, which when used is anchored by a private list on the stack of the
* task which held the group->mark_lock.
*
* inode->i_lock protects the i_fsnotify_mark_entries list anchored inside a
* given inode and each entry is hooked via the i_list. (and sorta the
* free_i_list)
*
*
* LIFETIME:
* Inode marks survive between when they are added to an inode and when their
* refcnt==0.
*
* The inode mark can be cleared for a number of different reasons including:
* - The inode is unlinked for the last time. (fsnotify_inode_remove)
* - The inode is being evicted from cache. (fsnotify_inode_delete)
* - The fs the inode is on is unmounted. (fsnotify_inode_delete/fsnotify_unmount_inodes)
* - Something explicitly requests that it be removed. (fsnotify_destroy_mark_by_entry)
* - The fsnotify_group associated with the mark is going away and all such marks
* need to be cleaned up. (fsnotify_clear_marks_by_group)
*
* Worst case we are given an inode and need to clean up all the marks on that
* inode. We take i_lock and walk the i_fsnotify_mark_entries safely. For each
* mark on the list we take a reference (so the mark can't disappear under us).
* We remove that mark form the inode's list of marks and we add this mark to a
* private list anchored on the stack using i_free_list; At this point we no
* longer fear anything finding the mark using the inode's list of marks.
*
* We can safely and locklessly run the private list on the stack of everything
* we just unattached from the original inode. For each mark on the private list
* we grab the mark-> and can thus dereference mark->group and mark->inode. If
* we see the group and inode are not NULL we take those locks. Now holding all
* 3 locks we can completely remove the mark from other tasks finding it in the
* future. Remember, 10 things might already be referencing this mark, but they
* better be holding a ref. We drop our reference we took before we unhooked it
* from the inode. When the ref hits 0 we can free the mark.
*
* Very similarly for freeing by group, except we use free_g_list.
*
* This has the very interesting property of being able to run concurrently with
* any (or all) other directions.
