commit 5351fbb1bf1413f6024892093528280769ca852f upstream.

page_flip_completed() dereferences 'work' variable after executing
queue_work(). This is not safe as the 'work' item might be already freed
by queued work:

    BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in page_flip_completed+0x3ff/0x490 at addr ffff8803dc010f90

<title>ALSA: seq: Don't handle loop timeout at snd_seq_pool_done()</title>

commit 37a7ea4a9b81f6a864c10a7cb0b96458df5310a3 upstream.

snd_seq_pool_done() syncs with closing of all opened threads, but it
aborts the wait loop with a timeout, and proceeds to the release
resource even if not all threads have been closed.  The timeout was 5
seconds, and if you run a crazy stuff, it can exceed easily, and may
result in the access of the invalid memory address -- this is what
syzkaller detected in a bug report.

As a fix, let the code graduate from naiveness, simply remove the loop
timeout.

<title>ALSA: seq: Fix race at creating a queue</title>

commit 4842e98f26dd80be3623c4714a244ba52ea096a8 upstream.

When a sequencer queue is created in snd_seq_queue_alloc(),it adds the
new queue element to the public list before referencing it.  Thus the
queue might be deleted before the call of snd_seq_queue_use(), and it
results in the use-after-free error, as spotted by syzkaller.

The fix is to reference the queue object at the right time.

commit 74470954857c264168d2b5a113904cf0cfd27d18 upstream.

rx_refill_timer should be deleted as soon as we disconnect from the
backend since otherwise it is possible for the timer to go off before
we get to xennet_destroy_queues(). If this happens we may dereference
queue-&gt;rx.sring which is set to NULL in xennet_disconnect_backend().

caused a problem on older controllers which do not support MSI-x (namely
ASR3405,ASR3805). This patch conditionalizes the previous patch to
controllers which support MSI-x

<title>scsi: zfcp: fix use-after-free by not tracing WKA port open/close on failed send</title>

commit 2dfa6688aafdc3f74efeb1cf05fb871465d67f79 upstream.

Dan Carpenter kindly reported:
&lt;quote&gt;
The patch d27a7cb91960: "zfcp: trace on request for open and close of
WKA port" from Aug 10, 2016, leads to the following static checker
warning:

	drivers/s390/scsi/zfcp_fsf.c:1615 zfcp_fsf_open_wka_port()
	warn: 'req' was already freed.

drivers/s390/scsi/zfcp_fsf.c
  1609          zfcp_fsf_start_timer(req, ZFCP_FSF_REQUEST_TIMEOUT);
  1610          retval = zfcp_fsf_req_send(req);
  1611          if (retval)
  1612                  zfcp_fsf_req_free(req);
                                          ^^^
Freed.

  1613  out:
  1614          spin_unlock_irq(&amp;qdio-&gt;req_q_lock);
  1615          if (req &amp;&amp; !IS_ERR(req))
  1616                  zfcp_dbf_rec_run_wka("fsowp_1", wka_port, req-&gt;req_id);
                                                                  ^^^^^^^^^^^
Use after free.

  1617          return retval;
  1618  }

Same thing for zfcp_fsf_close_wka_port() as well.
&lt;/quote&gt;

Rather than relying on req being NULL (or ERR_PTR) for all cases where
we don't want to trace or should not trace,
simply check retval which is unconditionally initialized with -EIO != 0
and it can only become 0 on successful retval = zfcp_fsf_req_send(req).
With that we can also remove the then again unnecessary unconditional
initialization of req which was introduced with that earlier commit.

  1616                  zfcp_dbf_rec_run_wka("fsowp_1", wka_port, req-&gt;req_id);
                                                                  ^^^^^^^^^^^
Use after free.

  1617          return retval;
  1618  }

Same thing for zfcp_fsf_close_wka_port() as well.
&lt;/quote&gt;

Rather than relying on req being NULL (or ERR_PTR) for all cases where
we don't want to trace or should not trace,
simply check retval which is unconditionally initialized with -EIO != 0
and it can only become 0 on successful retval = zfcp_fsf_req_send(req).
With that we can also remove the then again unnecessary unconditional
initialization of req which was introduced with that earlier commit.

Commit a50af86dd49e "netvsc: reduce maximum GSO size" was wrongly
backported to 4.4-stable.  The maximum size needs to be set before the
net device is registered, in netvsc_probe().

commit da7061c82e4a1bc6a5e134ef362c86261906c860 upstream.

The function ieee80211_ie_split_vendor doesn't return 0 on errors. Instead
it returns any offset &lt; ielen when WLAN_EID_VENDOR_SPECIFIC is found. The
return value in mesh_add_vendor_ies must therefore be checked against
ifmsh-&gt;ie_len and not 0. Otherwise all ifmsh-&gt;ie starting with
WLAN_EID_VENDOR_SPECIFIC will be rejected.
