We cannot use rcu_dereference_bh safely in netpoll_rx as we may
be called with IRQs disabled.  We could however simply disable
IRQs as that too causes BH to be disabled and is safe in either
case.

Thanks to John Linville for discovering this bug and providing
a patch.

<title>compat: Make compat_alloc_user_space() incorporate the access_ok()</title>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.toradex.cn/cgit/linux-toradex.git/commit/?id=c41d68a513c71e35a14f66d71782d27a79a81ea6'/>
<id>c41d68a513c71e35a14f66d71782d27a79a81ea6</id>
<content type='text'>
compat_alloc_user_space() expects the caller to independently call
access_ok() to verify the returned area.  A missing call could
introduce problems on some architectures.

This patch incorporates the access_ok() check into
compat_alloc_user_space() and also adds a sanity check on the length.
The existing compat_alloc_user_space() implementations are renamed
arch_compat_alloc_user_space() and are used as part of the
implementation of the new global function.

This patch assumes NULL will cause __get_user()/__put_user() to either
fail or access userspace on all architectures.  This should be
followed by checking the return value of compat_access_user_space()
for NULL in the callers, at which time the access_ok() in the callers
can also be removed.

There is a race between rpc_info_open and rpc_release_client()
in that nothing stops a process from opening the file after
the clnt-&gt;cl_kref goes to zero.

Fix this by using atomic_inc_unless_zero()...
