Subject: [ 083/147] IPoIB: Fix use-after-free of multicast object

3.2-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Patrick McHardy <kaber@...sh.net>

commit bea1e22df494a729978e7f2c54f7bda328f74bc3 upstream.

Fix a crash in ipoib_mcast_join_task().  (with help from Or Gerlitz)

Commit c8c2afe360b7 ("IPoIB: Use rtnl lock/unlock when changing device
flags") added a call to rtnl_lock() in ipoib_mcast_join_task(), which
is run from the ipoib_workqueue, and hence the workqueue can't be
flushed from the context of ipoib_stop().

In the current code, ipoib_stop() (which doesn't flush the workqueue)
calls ipoib_mcast_dev_flush(), which goes and deletes all the
multicast entries.  This takes place without any synchronization with
a possible running instance of ipoib_mcast_join_task() for the same
ipoib device, leading to a crash due to NULL pointer dereference.

Fix this by making sure that the workqueue is flushed before
ipoib_mcast_dev_flush() is called.  To make that possible, we move the
RTNL-lock wrapped code to ipoib_mcast_join_finish().
