syzbot found that ax25 routes where not properly protected
against concurrent use [1].

In this particular report the bug happened while
copying ax25-&gt;digipeat.

Fix this problem by making sure we call ax25_get_route()
while ax25_route_lock is held, so that no modification
could happen while using the route.

The current two ax25_get_route() callers do not sleep,
so this change should be fine.

Once we do that, ax25_get_route() no longer needs to
grab a reference on the found route.

There are multiple issues here:

1. After freeing dev-&gt;ax25_ptr, we need to set it to NULL otherwise
   we may use a dangling pointer.

2. There is a race between ax25_setsockopt() and device notifier as
   reported by syzbot. Close it by holding RTNL lock.

3. We need to test if dev-&gt;ax25_ptr is NULL before using it.

The poll() changes were not well thought out, and completely
unexplained.  They also caused a huge performance regression, because
"-&gt;poll()" was no longer a trivial file operation that just called down
to the underlying file operations, but instead did at least two indirect
calls.

Indirect calls are sadly slow now with the Spectre mitigation, but the
performance problem could at least be largely mitigated by changing the
"-&gt;get_poll_head()" operation to just have a per-file-descriptor pointer
to the poll head instead.  That gets rid of one of the new indirections.

But that doesn't fix the new complexity that is completely unwarranted
for the regular case.  The (undocumented) reason for the poll() changes
was some alleged AIO poll race fixing, but we don't make the common case
slower and more complex for some uncommon special case, so this all
really needs way more explanations and most likely a fundamental
redesign.

[ This revert is a revert of about 30 different commits, not reverted
  individually because that would just be unnecessarily messy  - Linus ]

Variants of proc_create{,_data} that directly take a struct seq_operations
argument and drastically reduces the boilerplate code in the callers.

All trivial callers converted over.

Prefer the direct use of octal for permissions.

Done with checkpatch -f --types=SYMBOLIC_PERMS --fix-inplace
and some typing.

Miscellanea:

o Whitespace neatening around these conversions.

<title>net: make getname() functions return length rather than use int* parameter</title>

<id>9b2c45d479d0fb8647c9e83359df69162b5fbe5f</id>

Changes since v1:
Added changes in these files:
    drivers/infiniband/hw/usnic/usnic_transport.c
    drivers/staging/lustre/lnet/lnet/lib-socket.c
    drivers/target/iscsi/iscsi_target_login.c
    drivers/vhost/net.c
    fs/dlm/lowcomms.c
    fs/ocfs2/cluster/tcp.c
    security/tomoyo/network.c

Before:
All these functions either return a negative error indicator,
or store length of sockaddr into "int *socklen" parameter
and return zero on success.

"int *socklen" parameter is awkward. For example, if caller does not
care, it still needs to provide on-stack storage for the value
it does not need.

None of the many FOO_getname() functions of various protocols
ever used old value of *socklen. They always just overwrite it.

This change drops this parameter, and makes all these functions, on success,
return length of sockaddr. It's always &gt;= 0 and can be differentiated
from an error.

Tests in callers are changed from "if (err)" to "if (err &lt; 0)", where needed.

rpc_sockname() lost "int buflen" parameter, since its only use was
to be passed to kernel_getsockname() as &amp;buflen and subsequently
not used in any way.

Userspace API is not changed.

/proc has been ignoring struct file_operations::owner field for 10 years.
Specifically, it started with commit 786d7e1612f0b0adb6046f19b906609e4fe8b1ba
("Fix rmmod/read/write races in /proc entries"). Notice the chunk where
inode-&gt;i_fop is initialized with proxy struct file_operations for
regular files:

	-               if (de-&gt;proc_fops)
	-                       inode-&gt;i_fop = de-&gt;proc_fops;
	+               if (de-&gt;proc_fops) {
	+                       if (S_ISREG(inode-&gt;i_mode))
	+                               inode-&gt;i_fop = &amp;proc_reg_file_ops;
	+                       else

	+               }

VFS stopped pinning module at this point.
