[PATCH 6.18 240/396] net: pktgen: fix proc entry use-after-free

6.18-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Chengfeng Ye <[email protected]>

commit 817ff6efdb7f484ea547218e11e17d8e43daa3b4 upstream.

pktgen_change_name() replaces pkt_dev->entry while holding t->if_lock.
pktgen_remove_device() removes the same entry before
_rem_dev_from_if_list() takes that lock.

This allows the following interleaving:

  CPU 0 (NETDEV_CHANGENAME)       CPU 1 (kpktgend)
  if_lock(t)
  proc_remove(pkt_dev->entry)
                                  proc_remove(pkt_dev->entry)
  pkt_dev->entry = proc_create_data(...)
  if_unlock(t)

The kthread can pass the stale proc_dir_entry to proc_remove() after the
rename path has freed it. A reproducer with a widened race window reports:

  BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in proc_remove+0x78/0x80

  The buggy address belongs to the object at ffff8881478fea00
   which belongs to the cache proc_dir_entry of size 192

Move proc_remove() into the if_lock-protected list removal helper. Keep it
before list_del_rcu() to preserve the ordering required by add_device().
The rename path must then finish replacing the entry before removal, or
it observes that the device is no longer on the list.
