-KEYS: Fix RCU no-lock warning in keyctl_session_to_parent()
-
-There's an protected access to the parent process's credentials in the middle
-of keyctl_session_to_parent(). This results in the following RCU warning:
-
- ===================================================
- [ INFO: suspicious rcu_dereference_check() usage. ]
- ---------------------------------------------------
- security/keys/keyctl.c:1291 invoked rcu_dereference_check() without protection!
-
- other info that might help us debug this:
-
- rcu_scheduler_active = 1, debug_locks = 0
- 1 lock held by keyctl-session-/2137:
- #0: (tasklist_lock){.+.+..}, at: [<ffffffff811ae2ec>] keyctl_session_to_parent+0x60/0x236
-
- stack backtrace:
- Pid: 2137, comm: keyctl-session- Not tainted 2.6.36-rc2-cachefs+ #1
- Call Trace:
- [<ffffffff8105606a>] lockdep_rcu_dereference+0xaa/0xb3
- [<ffffffff811ae379>] keyctl_session_to_parent+0xed/0x236
- [<ffffffff811af77e>] sys_keyctl+0xb4/0xb6
- [<ffffffff81001eab>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b
-
-The code should take the RCU read lock to make sure the parents credentials
-don't go away, even though it's holding a spinlock and has IRQ disabled.
