block: Fix oops scsi_disk_get()
When device open races with device shutdown, we can get the following oops in scsi_disk_get(): [11863.044351] general protection fault: 0000 [#1] SMP [11863.045561] Modules linked in: scsi_debug xfs libcrc32c netconsole btrfs raid6_pq zlib_deflate lzo_compress xor [last unloaded: loop] [11863.047853] CPU: 3 PID: 13042 Comm: hald-probe-stor Tainted: G W 4.10.0-rc2-xen+ #35 [11863.048030] Hardware name: Bochs Bochs, BIOS Bochs 01/01/2011 [11863.048030] task: ffff88007f438200 task.stack: ffffc90000fd0000 [11863.048030] RIP: 0010:scsi_disk_get+0x43/0x70 [11863.048030] RSP: 0018:ffffc90000fd3a08 EFLAGS: 00010202 [11863.048030] RAX: 6b6b6b6b6b6b6b6b RBX: ffff88007f56d000 RCX: 0000000000000000 [11863.048030] RDX: 0000000000000001 RSI: 0000000000000004 RDI: ffffffff81a8d880 [11863.048030] RBP: ffffc90000fd3a18 R08: 0000000000000000 R09: 0000000000000001 [11863.059217] R10: 0000000000000000 R11: 0000000000000000 R12: 00000000fffffffa [11863.059217] R13: ffff880078872800 R14: ffff880070915540 R15: 000000000000001d [11863.059217] FS: 00007f2611f71800(0000) GS:ffff88007f0c0000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 [11863.059217] CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 [11863.059217] CR2: 000000000060e048 CR3: 00000000778d4000 CR4: 00000000000006e0 [11863.059217] Call Trace: [11863.059217] ? disk_get_part+0x22/0x1f0 [11863.059217] sd_open+0x39/0x130 [11863.059217] __blkdev_get+0x69/0x430 [11863.059217] ? bd_acquire+0x7f/0xc0 [11863.059217] ? bd_acquire+0x96/0xc0 [11863.059217] ? blkdev_get+0x350/0x350 [11863.059217] blkdev_get+0x126/0x350 [11863.059217] ? _raw_spin_unlock+0x2b/0x40 [11863.059217] ? bd_acquire+0x7f/0xc0 [11863.059217] ? blkdev_get+0x350/0x350 [11863.059217] blkdev_open+0x65/0x80 ... As you can see RAX value is already poisoned showing that gendisk we got is already freed. The problem is that get_gendisk() looks up device number in ext_devt_idr and then does get_disk() which does kobject_get() on the disks kobject. However the disk gets removed from ext_devt_idr only in disk_release() (through blk_free_devt()) at which moment it has already 0 refcount and is already on its way to be freed. Indeed we've got a warning from kobject_get() about 0 refcount shortly before the oops. We fix the problem by using kobject_get_unless_zero() in get_disk() so that get_disk() cannot get reference on a disk that is already being freed.
