commit 4279e72cab31dd3eb8c89591eb9d2affa90ab6aa upstream.

The function call “dmaengine_unmap_put(unmap)” was used in an if branch.
The same call was immediately triggered by a subsequent goto statement.
Thus avoid such a call repetition.

This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.

<title>ntb: Force physically contiguous allocation of rx ring buffers</title>

<content type='text'>
Physical addresses under IOVA on x86 platform are mapped contiguously
as a side effect before the patch that removed CONFIG_DMA_REMAP. The
NTB rx buffer ring is a single chunk DMA buffer that is allocated
against the NTB PCI device. If the receive side is using a DMA device,
then the buffers are remapped against the DMA device before being
submitted via the dmaengine API. This scheme becomes a problem when
the physical memory is discontiguous. When dma_map_page() is called
on the kernel virtual address from the dma_alloc_coherent() call, the
new IOVA mapping no longer points to all the physical memory allocated
due to being discontiguous. Change dma_alloc_coherent() to dma_alloc_attrs()
in order to force DMA_ATTR_FORCE_CONTIGUOUS attribute. This is the best
fix for the circumstance. A potential future solution may be having the DMA
mapping API providing a way to alias an existing IOVA mapping to a new
device perhaps.

This fix is not to fix the patch pointed to by the fixes tag, but to fix
the issue arised in the ntb_transport driver on x86 platforms after the
said patch is applied.

<title>ntb: ntb_hw_switchtec: Fix use after free vulnerability in switchtec_ntb_remove due to race condition</title>

In the switchtec_ntb_add function, it can call switchtec_ntb_init_sndev
function, then &amp;sndev-&gt;check_link_status_work is bound with
check_link_status_work. switchtec_ntb_link_notification may be called
to start the work.

If we remove the module which will call switchtec_ntb_remove to make
cleanup, it will free sndev through kfree(sndev), while the work
mentioned above will be used. The sequence of operations that may lead
to a UAF bug is as follows:

CPU0                                 CPU1

                        | check_link_status_work
switchtec_ntb_remove    |
kfree(sndev);           |
                        | if (sndev-&gt;link_force_down)
                        | // use sndev

Fix it by ensuring that the work is canceled before proceeding with
the cleanup in switchtec_ntb_remove.
