Subject: Double free of dst_entry in ipv4_dst_destroy()

Hi-

I am seeing a crash on a distro V4.2.3 kernel caused by a double  
release of a dst_entry.  In ipv4_dst_destroy() the call to  
list_empty() finds a poisoned next pointer, indicating the dst_entry  
has already been removed from the list and freed.   The crash occurs  
18 to 24 hours into a run of a network stress exerciser.

I added a call to dump_stack() into dst_release() in an attempt to  
catch the two calls to dst_release().

(Corresponding Oops message cut out for brevity,  the double free  
occurred on dst_entry c000001d22c62500, same entry as in both the  
above traces.)

This is what I think is happening:

In the first thread tcp_v4_do_rcv() calls dst_release(), the reference  
count becomes zero scheduling a rcu callback of dst_destroy_rcu() and  
setting sk->sk_rx_dst = NULL.

tcp_rcv_established() is called from tcp_v4_do_rcv(), finding  
sk->sk_rx_dst = NULL it re-referencing the same dst_entry from  
skb->_skb_refdst taking a reference, the reference count is now 1 .   
At this point dst_destroy_rcu() is scheduled to run against a  
dst_entry that has a reference count of 1!

The second thread (a user read) follows the same path calling  
dst_release() and scheduling a second callback for the same dst_entry  
eventually causing the crash when the callback runs.

To test my theory I added the following check in tcp_v4_do_rcv().

---------------
If the dst released is the same dst as in skb->refdst, skip the call  
to dst_release().

With this change the test has run for 48 hours with out a crash.  I  
don't fully understand the conditions that must occur to set this up,  
therefor this may be a workaround not a fix.  What are your thoughts?
