Okay, the below patch should address this problem. Dave Jones managed
to reproduce it with the added WARN_ONs, and they made it obvious. He
cannot trigger it anymore with this fix applied. Thanks Dave!

Linus? Andrew?

Subject: [PATCH] mm: workingset: fix use-after-free in shadow node shrinker

Several people report seeing warnings about inconsistent radix tree
nodes followed by crashes in the workingset code, which all looked
like use-after-free access from the shadow node shrinker. Dave Jones
managed to reproduce the issue with a debug patch applied, which
confirmed that the radix tree shrinking indeed frees shadow nodes
while they are still linked to the shadow LRU:

  WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 53 at lib/radix-tree.c:643 delete_node+0x1e4/0x200
  CPU: 2 PID: 53 Comm: kswapd0 Not tainted 4.10.0-rc2-think+ #3

   ? 0xffffffffa023a077
   shrink_node+0x22c/0x330
   kswapd+0x392/0x8f0

This is the WARN_ON_ONCE(!list_empty(&node->private_list)) placed in
the inlined radix_tree_shrink().

The problem is with 14b468791fa9 ("mm: workingset: move shadow entry
tracking to radix tree exceptional tracking"), which passes an update
callback into the radix tree to link and unlink shadow leaf nodes when
tree entries change, but forgot to pass the callback when reclaiming a
shadow node. While the reclaimed shadow node itself is unlinked by the
shrinker, its deletion from the tree can cause the left-most leaf node
in the tree to be shrunk. If that happens to be a shadow node as well,
we don't unlink it from the LRU as we should.

Consider this tree, where the s are shadow entries:

     root->rnode
          |
     [0       n]
      |       |
   [s    ] [sssss]

Now the shadow node shrinker reclaims the rightmost leaf node through
the shadow node LRU:

     root->rnode
          |
     [0        ]
      |
  [s     ]

Because the parent of the deleted node is the first level below the
root and has only one child in the left-most slot, the intermediate
level is shrunk and the node containing the single shadow is put in
its place:

     root->rnode
          |
     [s        ]

The shrinker again sees a single left-most slot in a first level node
and thus decides to store the shadow in root->rnode directly and free
the node - which is a leaf node on the shadow node LRU.

root->rnode
     |
     s

Without the update callback, the freed node remains on the shadow LRU,
where it causes later shrinker runs to crash.

Pass the node updater callback into __radix_tree_delete_node() in case
the deletion causes the left-most branch in the tree to collapse too.

Also add warnings when linked nodes are freed right away, rather than
wait for the use-after-free when the list is scanned much later.
