Subject: mempolicy: migration attempt to match interleave nodes: fix
Date: Mon, 23 Oct 2023 23:50:42 -0700 (PDT)
mm-unstable commit edd33b8807a1 ("mempolicy: migration attempt to match
interleave nodes") added a second vma_iter search to do_mbind(), to
determine the interleave index to be used in the MPOL_INTERLEAVE case.
But sadly it added it just after the mmap_write_unlock(), leaving this new
VMA search unprotected: and so syzbot reports suspicious RCU usage from
lib/maple_tree.c:856.
This could be fixed with an rcu_read_lock/unlock() pair (per Liam); but
since we have been relying on the mmap_lock up to this point, it's
slightly better to extend it over the new search too, for a well-defined
result consistent with the policy this mbind() is establishing (rather
than whatever might follow once the mmap_lock is dropped).
