Subject: [PATCH] afs: Fix use-after-free due to get/remove race in volume tree

Hi Linus,

Could you apply this fix please?

David
---
When an afs_volume struct is put, its refcount is reduced to 0 before the
cell->volume_lock is taken and the volume removed from the cell->volumes
tree.  Unfortunately, this means that the lookup code can race and see a
volume with a zero ref in the tree, resulting in a use-after-free:

        refcount_t: addition on 0; use-after-free.
        WARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 130782 at lib/refcount.c:25 refcount_warn_saturate+0x7a/0xda
        ...
        RIP: 0010:refcount_warn_saturate+0x7a/0xda

         entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x62/0x6a

Fix this by:

 (1) When putting, use a flag to indicate if the volume has been removed
     from the tree and skip the rb_erase if it has.

 (2) When looking up, use a conditional ref increment and if it fails
     because the refcount is 0, replace the node in the tree and set the
     removal flag.
