PCI: Check parent kobject in pci_destroy_dev()
If pci_stop_and_remove_bus_device() is run concurrently for a device and its parent bridge via remove_callback(), both code paths attempt to acquire pci_rescan_remove_lock. If the child device removal acquires it first, there will be no problems. However, if the parent bridge removal acquires it first, it will eventually execute pci_destroy_dev() for the child device, but that device object will not be freed yet due to the reference held by the concurrent child removal. Consequently, both pci_stop_bus_device() and pci_remove_bus_device() will be executed for that device unnecessarily and pci_destroy_dev() will see a corrupted list head in that object. Moreover, an excess put_device() will be executed for that device in that case which may lead to a use-after-free in the final kobject_put() done by sysfs_schedule_callback_work(). To avoid that problem, make pci_destroy_dev() check if the device's parent kobject is NULL, which only happens after device_del() has already run for it. Make pci_destroy_dev() return immediately whithout doing anything in that case. Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Bjorn Helgaas <bhelgaas@google.com>
