Pull audit fixes from Paul Moore:
 "Two small fixes relating to audit's use of fsnotify.

  The first patch plugs a leak and the second fixes some lock
  shenanigans. The patches are small and I banged on this for an
  afternoon with our testsuite and didn't see anything odd"

* 'stable-4.10' of git://git.infradead.org/users/pcmoore/audit:
  audit: Fix sleep in atomic

There are only two calls sites of fsnotify_duplicate_mark(). Those are
in kernel/audit_tree.c and both are bogus. Vfsmount pointer is unused
for audit tree, inode pointer and group gets set in
fsnotify_add_mark_locked() later anyway, mask and free_mark are already
set in alloc_chunk(). In fact, calling fsnotify_duplicate_mark() is
actively harmful because following fsnotify_add_mark_locked() will leak
group reference by overwriting the group pointer. So just remove the two
calls to fsnotify_duplicate_mark() and the function.

fsnotify_unmount_inodes() plays complex tricks to pin next inode in the
sb-&gt;s_inodes list when iterating over all inodes. Furthermore the code has a
bug that if the current inode is the last on i_sb_list that does not have e.g.
I_FREEING set, then we leave next_i pointing to inode which may get removed
from the i_sb_list once we drop s_inode_list_lock thus resulting in
use-after-free issues (usually manifesting as infinite looping in
fsnotify_unmount_inodes()).

Fix the problem by keeping current inode pinned somewhat longer. Then we can
make the code much simpler and standard.

<title>fanotify: fix possible false warning when freeing events</title>

When freeing permission events by fsnotify_destroy_event(), the warning
WARN_ON(!list_empty(&amp;event-&gt;list)); may falsely hit.

This is because although fanotify_get_response() saw event-&gt;response
set, there is nothing to make sure the current CPU also sees the removal
of the event from the list.  Add proper locking around the WARN_ON() to
avoid the false warning.

<title>fanotify: use notification_lock instead of access_lock</title>

<content type='text'>
Fanotify code has its own lock (access_lock) to protect a list of events
waiting for a response from userspace.

However this is somewhat awkward as the same list_head in the event is
protected by notification_lock if it is part of the notification queue
and by access_lock if it is part of the fanotify private queue which
makes it difficult for any reliable checks in the generic code.  So make
fanotify use the same lock - notification_lock - for protecting its
private event list.
