[ Upstream commit 517a16b1a88bdb6b530f48d5d153478b2552d9a8 ]

Commit 63346650c1a9 ("netrom: switch to sock timer API") switched to use
sock timer API. It replaces mod_timer() by sk_reset_timer(), and
del_timer() by sk_stop_timer().

Function sk_reset_timer() will increase the refcount of sock if it is
called on an inactive timer, hence, in case the timer expires, we need to
decrease the refcount ourselves in the handler, otherwise, the sock
refcount will be unbalanced and the sock will never be freed.

<title>net: netrom: Fix potential nr_neigh refcnt leak in nr_add_node</title>

[ Upstream commit d03f228470a8c0a22b774d1f8d47071e0de4f6dd ]

nr_add_node() invokes nr_neigh_get_dev(), which returns a local
reference of the nr_neigh object to "nr_neigh" with increased refcnt.

When nr_add_node() returns, "nr_neigh" becomes invalid, so the refcount
should be decreased to keep refcount balanced.

The issue happens in one normal path of nr_add_node(), which forgets to
decrease the refcnt increased by nr_neigh_get_dev() and causes a refcnt
leak. It should decrease the refcnt before the function returns like
other normal paths do.

Fix this issue by calling nr_neigh_put() before the nr_add_node()
returns.

[ Upstream commit 4638faac032756f7eab5524be7be56bee77e426b ]

sock_efree() releases the sock refcnt, if we don't hold this refcnt
when setting skb-&gt;destructor to it, the refcnt would not be balanced.
This leads to several bug reports from syzbot.

I have checked other users of sock_efree(), all of them hold the
sock refcnt.

When the skb is associated with a new sock, just assigning
it to skb-&gt;sk is not sufficient, we have to set its destructor
to free the sock properly too.

[ Upstream commit 7314f5480f3e37e570104dc5e0f28823ef849e72 ]

nr_find_socket(), nr_find_peer() and nr_find_listener() lock the
sock after finding it in the global list. However, the call path
requires BH disabled for the sock lock consistently.

Actually the locking is unnecessary at this point, we can just hold
the sock refcnt to make sure it is not gone after we unlock the global
list, and lock it later only when needed.

After TIPC doesn't depend on iocb argument in its internal
implementations of sendmsg() and recvmsg() hooks defined in proto
structure, no any user is using iocb argument in them at all now.
Then we can drop the redundant iocb argument completely from kinds of
implementations of both sendmsg() and recvmsg() in the entire
networking stack.
