commit 4ab59c3c638c6c8952bf07739805d20eb6358a4d upstream.
Charan Teja reported a 'use-after-free' in dmabuffs_dname [1], which
happens if the dma_buf_release() is called while the userspace is
accessing the dma_buf pseudo fs's dmabuffs_dname() in another process,
and dma_buf_release() releases the dmabuf object when the last reference
to the struct file goes away.
I discussed with Arnd Bergmann, and he suggested that rather than tying
the dma_buf_release() to the file_operations' release(), we can tie it to
the dentry_operations' d_release(), which will be called when the last ref
to the dentry is removed.
The path exercised by __fput() calls f_op->release() first, and then calls
dput, which eventually calls d_op->d_release().
In the 'normal' case, when no userspace access is happening via dma_buf
pseudo fs, there should be exactly one fd, file, dentry and inode, so
closing the fd will kill of everything right away.
In the presented case, the dentry's d_release() will be called only when
the dentry's last ref is released.
Therefore, lets move dma_buf_release() from fops->release() to
d_ops->d_release()
Many thanks to Arnd for his FS insights :)

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.
