[ Upstream commit 77c1c03c5b8ef28e55bb0aff29b1e006037ca645 ]

We must call security_release_secctx to free the memory returned by
security_secid_to_secctx, otherwise memory may be leaked forever.

The netfilter hook list never uses the prev pointer, and so can be trimmed to
be a simple singly-linked list.

In addition to having a more light weight structure for hook traversal,
struct net becomes 5568 bytes (down from 6400) and struct net_device becomes
2176 bytes (down from 2240).

All of the callers of nf_hook_slow already hold the rcu_read_lock, so this
cleanup removes the recursive call.  This is just a cleanup, as the locking
code gracefully handles this situation.

Like NFQNL_MSG_VERDICT_BATCH do, we should also reject the verdict
request when the portid is not same with the initial portid(maybe
from another process).

====================
Netfilter fixes for net

The following patchset contains Netfilter fixes for your net tree,
they are:

1) Fix incorrect timestamp in nfnetlink_queue introduced when addressing
   y2038 safe timestamp, from Florian Westphal.

2) Get rid of leftover conntrack definition from the previous merge
   window, oneliner from Florian.

3) Make nf_queue handler pernet to resolve race on dereferencing the
   hook state structure with netns removal, from Eric Biederman.

4) Ensure clean exit on unregistered helper ports, from Taehee Yoo.

5) Restore FLOWI_FLAG_KNOWN_NH in nf_dup_ipv6. This got lost while
   generalizing xt_TEE to add packet duplication support in nf_tables,
   from Paolo Abeni.

6) Insufficient netlink NFTA_SET_TABLE attribute check in
   nf_tables_getset(), from Phil Turnbull.

7) Reject helper registration on duplicated ports via modparams.

&gt;

The simple fix for this requires a new pernet variable for struct
nf_queue that indicates when it is safe to use the dynamically
allocated nf_queue state.

As we need a variable anyway make nf_register_queue_handler and
nf_unregister_queue_handler pernet.  This allows the existing logic of
when it is safe to use the state from the nfnetlink_queue module to be
reused with no changes except for making it per net.

The syncrhonize_rcu from nf_unregister_queue_handler is moved to a new
function nfnl_queue_net_exit_batch so that the worst case of having a
syncrhonize_rcu in the pernet exit path is not experienced in batch
mode.

====================
Netfilter updates for net-next

The following patchset contains the first batch of Netfilter updates for
your net-next tree.

1) Define pr_fmt() in nf_conntrack, from Weongyo Jeong.

2) Define and register netfilter's afinfo for the bridge family,
   this comes in preparation for native nfqueue's bridge for nft,
   from Stephane Bryant.

3) Add new attributes to store layer 2 and VLAN headers to nfqueue,
   also from Stephane Bryant.

4) Parse new NFQA_VLAN and NFQA_L2HDR nfqueue netlink attributes
   coming from userspace, from Stephane Bryant.

5) Use net-&gt;ipv6.devconf_all-&gt;hop_limit instead of hardcoded hop_limit
   in IPv6 SYNPROXY, from Liping Zhang.

6) Remove unnecessary check for dst == NULL in nf_reject_ipv6,
   from Haishuang Yan.

7) Deinline ctnetlink event report functions, from Florian Westphal.
