Subject: [PATCH v4] net: rose: fix null-ptr-deref caused by rose_kill_by_neigh

When the link layer connection is broken, the rose->neighbour is
set to null. But rose->neighbour could be used by rose_connection()
and rose_release() later, because there is no synchronization among
them. As a result, the null-ptr-deref bugs will happen.

One of the null-ptr-deref bugs is shown below:

    (thread 1)                  |        (thread 2)
                                |  rose_connect
rose_kill_by_neigh              |    lock_sock(sk)
  spin_lock_bh(&rose_list_lock) |    if (!rose->neighbour)
  rose->neighbour = NULL;//(1)  |
                                |    rose->neighbour->use++;//(2)

The rose->neighbour is set to null in position (1) and dereferenced
in position (2).

The KASAN report triggered by POC is shown below:

This patch adds lock_sock() in rose_kill_by_neigh() in order to
synchronize with rose_connect() and rose_release().

Meanwhile, this patch adds sock_hold() protected by rose_list_lock
that could synchronize with rose_remove_socket() in order to mitigate
UAF bug caused by lock_sock() we add.

What's more, there is no need using rose_neigh_list_lock to protect
rose_kill_by_neigh(). Because we have already used rose_neigh_list_lock
to protect the state change of rose_neigh in rose_link_failed(), which
is well synchronized.
