There are UAF bugs caused by rose_t0timer_expiry(). The
root cause is that del_timer() could not stop the timer
handler that is running and there is no synchronization.
One of the race conditions is shown below:
(thread 1) | (thread 2)
| rose_device_event
| rose_rt_device_down
| rose_remove_neigh
rose_t0timer_expiry | rose_stop_t0timer(rose_neigh)
... | del_timer(&neigh->t0timer)
| kfree(rose_neigh) //[1]FREE
neigh->dce_mode //[2]USE |
The rose_neigh is deallocated in position [1] and use in
position [2].
The crash trace triggered by POC is like below:
BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in expire_timers+0x144/0x320

This patch changes rose_stop_ftimer() and rose_stop_t0timer()
in rose_remove_neigh() to del_timer_sync() in order that the
timer handler could be finished before the resources such as
rose_neigh and so on are deallocated. As a result, the UAF
bugs could be mitigated.
