Konstantin Khorenko 1e102037f8 kernel/module.c: wakeup processes in module_wq on module unload
commit 5d603311615f612320bb77bd2a82553ef1ced5b7 upstream.

Fix the race between load and unload a kernel module.

sys_delete_module()
 try_stop_module()
  mod->state = _GOING
					add_unformed_module()
					 old = find_module_all()
					 (old->state == _GOING =>
					  wait_event_interruptible())

					 During pre-condition
					 finished_loading() rets 0
					 schedule()
					 (never gets waken up later)
 free_module()
  mod->state = _UNFORMED
   list_del_rcu(&mod->list)
   (dels mod from "modules" list)

return

The race above leads to modprobe hanging forever on loading
a module.

Error paths on loading module call wake_up_all(&module_wq) after
freeing module, so let's do the same on straight module unload.

Fixes: 6e6de3dee5 ("kernel/module.c: Only return -EEXIST for modules that have finished loading")

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
