Jann Horn reported a problem with commit eb1231f73c4d ("selinux:
clarify task subjective and objective credentials") where some LSM
hooks were attempting to access the subjective credentials of a task
other than the current task.  Generally speaking, it is not safe to
access another task's subjective credentials and doing so can cause
a number of problems.

Further, while looking into the problem, I realized that Smack was
suffering from a similar problem brought about by a similar commit
1fb057dcde11 ("smack: differentiate between subjective and objective
task credentials").

This patch addresses this problem by restoring the use of the task's
objective credentials in those cases where the task is other than the
current executing task.  Not only does this resolve the problem
reported by Jann, it is arguably the correct thing to do in these
cases.

find_vma() and variants need protection when used.  This patch adds
mmap_assert_lock() calls in the functions.

To make sure the invariant is satisfied, we also need to add a
mmap_read_lock() around the get_user_pages_remote() call in
get_arg_page().  The lock is not strictly necessary because the mm has
been newly created, but the extra cost is limited because the same mutex
was also acquired shortly before in __bprm_mm_init(), so it is hot and
uncontended.

Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
 "Core:

   - Enable memcg accounting for various networking objects.

  BPF:

   - Introduce bpf timers.

   - Add perf link and opaque bpf_cookie which the program can read out
     again, to be used in libbpf-based USDT library.

   - Add bpf_task_pt_regs() helper to access user space pt_regs in
     kprobes, to help user space stack unwinding.

   - Add support for UNIX sockets for BPF sockmap.

   - Extend BPF iterator support for UNIX domain sockets.

   - Allow BPF TCP congestion control progs and bpf iterators to call
     bpf_setsockopt(), e.g. to switch to another congestion control
     algorithm.

  Protocols:

   - Support IOAM Pre-allocated Trace with IPv6.

   - Support Management Component Transport Protocol.

   - bridge: multicast: add vlan support.

   - netfilter: add hooks for the SRv6 lightweight tunnel driver.

   - tcp:
       - enable mid-stream window clamping (by user space or BPF)
       - allow data-less, empty-cookie SYN with TFO_SERVER_COOKIE_NOT_REQD
       - more accurate DSACK processing for RACK-TLP

   - mptcp:
       - add full mesh path manager option
       - add partial support for MP_FAIL
       - improve use of backup subflows
       - optimize option processing

   - af_unix: add OOB notification support.

   - ipv6: add IFLA_INET6_RA_MTU to expose MTU value advertised by the
     router.

   - mac80211: Target Wake Time support in AP mode.

   - can: j1939: extend UAPI to notify about RX status.

  Driver APIs:

   - Add page frag support in page pool API.

   - Many improvements to the DSA (distributed switch) APIs.

   - ethtool: extend IRQ coalesce uAPI with timer reset modes.

   - devlink: control which auxiliary devices are created.

   - Support CAN PHYs via the generic PHY subsystem.

   - Proper cross-chip support for tag_8021q.

   - Allow TX forwarding for the software bridge data path to be

   - Allow TX forwarding for the software bridge data path to be
     offloaded to capable devices.

  Drivers:

Pull device mapper updates from Mike Snitzer:

 - Add DM infrastructure for IMA-based remote attestion. These changes
   are the basis for deploying DM-based storage in a "cloud" that must
   validate configurations end-users run to maintain trust. These DM
   changes allow supported DM targets' configurations to be measured via
   IMA. But the policy and enforcement (of which configurations are
   valid) is managed by something outside the kernel (e.g. Keylime).

 - Fix DM crypt scalability regression on systems with many cpus due to
   percpu_counter spinlock contention in crypt_page_alloc().

 - Use in_hardirq() instead of deprecated in_irq() in DM crypt.

 - Add event counters to DM writecache to allow users to further assess
   how the writecache is performing.

 - Various code cleanup in DM writecache's main IO mapping function.
