commit 55acdd926f6b21a5cdba23da98a48aedf19ac9c3 upstream.

Can be reproduced when running dlm_controld (tested on 4.4.x, 4.12.4):
 # seq 1 100 | xargs -P0 -n1 dlm_tool join
 # seq 1 100 | xargs -P0 -n1 dlm_tool leave

misc_register fails due to duplicate sysfs entry, which causes
dlm_device_register to free ls-&gt;ls_device.name.
In dlm_device_deregister the name was freed again, causing memory
corruption.

According to the comment in dlm_device_deregister the name should've been
set to NULL when registration fails,
so this patch does that.

commit 55acdd926f6b21a5cdba23da98a48aedf19ac9c3 upstream.

misc_register fails due to duplicate sysfs entry, which causes
dlm_device_register to free ls-&gt;ls_device.name.
In dlm_device_deregister the name was freed again, causing memory

According to the comment in dlm_device_deregister the name should've been
set to NULL when registration fails,
so this patch does that.

<title>dlm: free workqueues after the connections</title>

commit 3a8db79889ce16930aff19b818f5b09651bb7644 upstream.

After backporting commit ee44b4bc054a ("dlm: use sctp 1-to-1 API")
series to a kernel with an older workqueue which didn't use RCU yet, it
was noticed that we are freeing the workqueues in dlm_lowcomms_stop()
too early as free_conn() will try to access that memory for canceling
the queued works if any.

This issue was introduced by commit 0d737a8cfd83 as before it such
attempt to cancel the queued works wasn't performed, so the issue was
not present.

This patch fixes it by simply inverting the free order.

<title>net: rename SOCK_ASYNC_NOSPACE and SOCK_ASYNC_WAITDATA</title>

<id>9cd3e072b0be17446e37d7414eac8a3499e0601e</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch is a cleanup to make following patch easier to
review.

Goal is to move SOCK_ASYNC_NOSPACE and SOCK_ASYNC_WAITDATA
from (struct socket)-&gt;flags to a (struct socket_wq)-&gt;flags
to benefit from RCU protection in sock_wake_async()

To ease backports, we rename both constants.

Two new helpers, sk_set_bit(int nr, struct sock *sk)
and sk_clear_bit(int net, struct sock *sk) are added so that
following patch can change their implementation.

Pull SCSI target updates from Nicholas Bellinger:
 "This series contains HCH's changes to absorb configfs attribute
  -&gt;show() + -&gt;store() function pointer usage from it's original
  tree-wide consumers, into common configfs code.

  It includes usb-gadget, target w/ drivers, netconsole and ocfs2
  changes to realize the improved simplicity, that now renders the
  original include/target/configfs_macros.h CPP magic for fabric drivers
  and others, unnecessary and obsolete.

  And with common code in place, new configfs attributes can be added
  easier than ever before.

  Note, there are further improvements in-flight from other folks for
  v4.5 code in configfs land, plus number of target fixes for post -rc1
  code"

In the meantime, a new user of the now-removed old configfs API came in
through the char/misc tree in commit 7bd1d4093c2f ("stm class: Introduce
an abstraction for System Trace Module devices").

This merge resolution comes from Alexander Shishkin, who updated his stm
class tracing abstraction to account for the removal of the old
show_attribute and store_attribute methods in commit 517982229f78
("configfs: remove old API") from this pull.  As Alexander says about
that patch:

 "There's no need to keep an extra wrapper structure per item and the
  awkward show_attribute/store_attribute item ops are no longer needed.

  This patch converts policy code to the new api, all the while making
  the code quite a bit smaller and easier on the eyes.

  Signed-off-by: Alexander Shishkin &lt;alexander.shishkin@linux.intel.com&gt;"

That patch was folded into the merge so that the tree should be fully
bisectable.

Replace wait_event_killable with wait_event_interruptible
so that a program waiting for a posix lock can be
interrupted by a signal.  With the killable version,
a program was not interruptible by a signal if it
had a signal handler set for it, overriding the default
action of terminating the process.
