Lin Ma ed35e950d8 NFC: add NCI_UNREG flag to eliminate the race
[ Upstream commit 48b71a9e66c2eab60564b1b1c85f4928ed04e406 ]

There are two sites that calls queue_work() after the
destroy_workqueue() and lead to possible UAF.

The first site is nci_send_cmd(), which can happen after the
nci_close_device as below

nfcmrvl_nci_unregister_dev   |  nfc_genl_dev_up
  nci_close_device           |
    flush_workqueue          |
    del_timer_sync           |
  nci_unregister_device      |    nfc_get_device
    destroy_workqueue        |    nfc_dev_up
    nfc_unregister_device    |      nci_dev_up
      device_del             |        nci_open_device
                             |          __nci_request
                             |            nci_send_cmd
                             |              queue_work !!!

Another site is nci_cmd_timer, awaked by the nci_cmd_work from the
nci_send_cmd.

  ...                        |  ...
  nci_unregister_device      |  queue_work
    destroy_workqueue        |
    nfc_unregister_device    |  ...
      device_del             |  nci_cmd_work
                             |  mod_timer
                             |  ...
                             |  nci_cmd_timer
                             |    queue_work !!!

For the above two UAF, the root cause is that the nfc_dev_up can race
between the nci_unregister_device routine. Therefore, this patch
introduce NCI_UNREG flag to easily eliminate the possible race. In
addition, the mutex_lock in nci_close_device can act as a barrier.

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.
