Subject: [PATCH 1/6] pps: fix cdev use-after-free
The lifetime of a struct pps_device and the struct cdev embedded in it
is under control of the associated struct device.
The cdev's .open/.release methods (pps_cdev_{open,release}()) try to
keep the device alive while the cdev is open, but this is insufficient.
Consider this sequence:
1. Attach the PPS line discipline to a TTY.
2. Open the created /dev/pps* file.
3. Detach the PPS line discipline.
4. Close the file.
In this scenario, the last reference to the cdev is not released from
pps code, but in __fput(), *after* running the .release method, which
frees the pps_device (including struct cdev).
Fix this by using cdev_set_parent() to ensure that the pps_device
outlives the cdev.
cdev_set_parent() should be used before cdev_add(), but we can't do that
here, because at that point we don't have the dev yet. It's created
in the next step with device_create(). To compensate, bump the refcount
of the dev, which is what cdev_add() would have done if we followed the
usual order. This will be cleaned up in subsequent patches.
With the parent relationship in place, the .open/.release methods no
longer need to change the refcount. The cdev reference held by the core
filesystem code is enough to keep the pps device alive.
The .release method had nothing else to do, so remove it.
Move the cdev_del() from pps_device_destruct() to pps_unregister_cdev().
This is necessary. Otherwise, the pps_device would be holding a
reference to itself and never get released. It also brings symmetry
between pps_register_cdev() and pps_unregister_cdev().
