mainlining shenanigans
c1f6e3c818
The rawmidi core allows user to resize the runtime buffer via ioctl, and this may lead to UAF when performed during concurrent reads or writes: the read/write functions unlock the runtime lock temporarily during copying form/to user-space, and that's the race window. This patch fixes the hole by introducing a reference counter for the runtime buffer read/write access and returns -EBUSY error when the resize is performed concurrently against read/write. Note that the ref count field is a simple integer instead of refcount_t here, since the all contexts accessing the buffer is basically protected with a spinlock, hence we need no expensive atomic ops. Also, note that this busy check is needed only against read / write functions, and not in receive/transmit callbacks; the race can happen only at the spinlock hole mentioned in the above, while the whole function is protected for receive / transmit callbacks.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
