Cong Wang 61fd38db76 act_ife: load meta modules before tcf_idr_check_alloc()
[ Upstream commit cc8e58f8325cdf14b9516b61c384cdfd02a4f408 ]

The following deadlock scenario is triggered by syzbot:

Thread A:				Thread B:
tcf_idr_check_alloc()
...
populate_metalist()
  rtnl_unlock()
					rtnl_lock()
					...
  request_module()			tcf_idr_check_alloc()
  rtnl_lock()

At this point, thread A is waiting for thread B to release RTNL
lock, while thread B is waiting for thread A to commit the IDR
change with tcf_idr_insert() later.

Break this deadlock situation by preloading ife modules earlier,
before tcf_idr_check_alloc(), this is fine because we only need
to load modules we need potentially.

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.
