Subject: [PATCH v1 04/12] firmware: fix possible use after free on name on asynchronous request

From: "Luis R. Rodriguez" <mcgrof@...e.com>

Asynchronous firmware loading copies the pointer to the
name passed as an argument only to be scheduled later and
used. This behaviour works well for synchronous calling
but in asynchronous mode there's a chance the caller could
immediately free the passed string after making the
asynchronous call. This could trigger a use after free
having the kernel look on disk for arbitrary file names.

In order to force-test the issue you can use a test-driver
designed to illustrate this issue on github [0], use the
next-20150505-fix-use-after-free branch.

With this patch applied you get:

[  283.512445] firmware name: test_module_stuff.bin
[  287.514020] firmware name: test_module_stuff.bin
[  287.532489] firmware found

Without this patch applied you can end up with something such as:

[  135.624216] firmware name: \xffffff80BJ
[  135.624249] platform fake-dev.0: Direct firmware load for \xffffff80Bi failed with error -2
[  135.624252] No firmware found
[  135.624252] firmware found

Unfortunatley in the worst and most common case however you
can typically crash your system with a page fault by trying to
free something which you cannot, and/or a NULL pointer
dereference [1].

The fix and issue using schedule_work() for asynchronous
runs is generalized in the following SmPL grammar patch,
when applied to next-20150505 only the firmware_class
code is affected. This grammar patch can and should further
be generalized to vet for for other kernel asynchronous
mechanisms.
