Will Deacon f739a699db pinctrl: devicetree: Avoid taking direct reference to device name string
[ Upstream commit be4c60b563edee3712d392aaeb0943a768df7023 ]

When populating the pinctrl mapping table entries for a device, the
'dev_name' field for each entry is initialised to point directly at the
string returned by 'dev_name()' for the device and subsequently used by
'create_pinctrl()' when looking up the mappings for the device being
probed.

This is unreliable in the presence of calls to 'dev_set_name()', which may
reallocate the device name string leaving the pinctrl mappings with a
dangling reference. This then leads to a use-after-free every time the
name is dereferenced by a device probe:

  | BUG: KASAN: invalid-access in strcmp+0x20/0x64
  | Read of size 1 at addr 13ffffc153494b00 by task modprobe/590
  | Pointer tag: [13], memory tag: [fe]

Follow the example of sysfs, and duplicate the device name string before
stashing it away in the pinctrl mapping entries.

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.
