Hi,

This series fixes slab out-of-bounds accesses in raid10 when reshape changes
the number of raid disks while regular I/O is still reusing r10bio objects
allocated under the previous geometry.

The bug is reproducible with a simple 4-disk to 5-disk reshape under write
load, for example:

  mdadm -C /dev/md777 -l10 -n4 /dev/sda /dev/sdb /dev/sdc /dev/sdd
  mkfs.ext4 /dev/md777
  mount /dev/md777 /mnt/test
  fsstress -d /mnt/test -n 24000 -p 8 -l 24 &
  mdadm /dev/md777 --add /dev/sde
  mdadm --grow /dev/md777 --raid-devices=5 \
    --backup-file=/tmp/md-reshape-backup


KASAN report:

  BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in free_r10bio+0x1c4/0x260 [raid10]
  Read of size 8 at addr ffff00008c2dfac8 by task ksoftirqd/0/15
  free_r10bio
  raid_end_bio_io
  one_write_done
  raid10_end_write_request


This series addresses the problem in three steps:

  1. ensure the sync_action=reshape caller suspends and locks before start_reshape

  2. resize r10bio_pool when reshape grows raid_disks

  3. reorder the r10bio free flow before bio_endio in the regular and discard
     completion paths


Changes in v6:
   - suspend the array in action_store() after flush_work()
   - free r10bio before ending the discard master bio

Changes in v5 (suggested by Yu Kuai):
   - simplify patch 2
   - switch patch 3 from bounding reused r10bio devs[] walks by used_nr_devs
     to reordering the free/endio flow

Changes in v4:
   - make the sync_action=reshape path invoke mddev_suspend_and_lock() before
     calling start_reshape()
   - leave the md-cluster and dm-raid paths unchanged; they still reach
     start_reshape() with the mddev locked but without suspend

Changes in v3:
   - replace freeze_array()/unfreeze_array() in raid10_start_reshape() with
     mddev_suspend_and_lock_nointr()/mddev_unlock_and_resume(); freeze_array()
     can return while retry-list items still hold pool objects, while
     mddev_suspend() provides the correct upper-layer quiesce interface

Changes in v2:
  - add this cover letter
  - convert r10bio_pool to a fixed-size kmalloc mempool
  - rebuild r10bio_pool inside the freeze window before switching live reshape
    geometry
  - switch raid10_quiesce() to freeze_array()/unfreeze_array()


Testing:
  - reproduced the original KASAN slab-out-of-bounds on 4-disk -> 5-disk
    raid10 reshape with fsstress
  - verified that this series fixes that reproducer
  - exercised the 5-disk -> 4-disk reshape direction as well

Thanks,
Chen Cheng
