[v4,0/6] handle unexpected message from server

Message

This patch set tries to fix that client might oops if nbd server send
unexpected message to client, for example, our syzkaller report a uaf
in nbd_read_stat():

1) At first, a normal io is submitted and completed with scheduler:

internel_tag = blk_mq_get_tag -> get tag from sched_tags
 blk_mq_rq_ctx_init
  sched_tags->rq[internel_tag] = sched_tag->static_rq[internel_tag]
...
blk_mq_get_driver_tag
 __blk_mq_get_driver_tag -> get tag from tags
 tags->rq[tag] = sched_tag->static_rq[internel_tag]

So, both tags->rq[tag] and sched_tags->rq[internel_tag] are pointing
to the request: sched_tags->static_rq[internal_tag]. Even if the
io is finished.

2) nbd server send a reply with random tag directly:

recv_work
 nbd_read_stat
  blk_mq_tag_to_rq(tags, tag)
   rq = tags->rq[tag]

3) if the sched_tags->static_rq is freed:

blk_mq_sched_free_requests
 blk_mq_free_rqs(q->tag_set, hctx->sched_tags, i)
  -> step 2) access rq before clearing rq mapping
  blk_mq_clear_rq_mapping(set, tags, hctx_idx);
  __free_pages() -> rq is freed here

4) Then, nbd continue to use the freed request in nbd_read_stat()

Changes in v4:
 - change the name of the patchset, since uaf is not the only problem
 if server send unexpected reply message.
 - instead of adding new interface, use blk_mq_find_and_get_req().
 - add patch 5 to this series
Changes in v3:
 - v2 can't fix the problem thoroughly, add patch 3-4 to this series.
 - modify descriptions.
 - patch 5 is just a cleanup
Changes in v2:
 - as Bart suggested, add a new helper function for drivers to get
 request by tag.

Yu Kuai (6):
  blk-mq: export two symbols to get request by tag
  nbd: convert to use blk_mq_find_and_get_req()
  nbd: don't handle response without a corresponding request message
  nbd: make sure request completion won't concurrent
  nbd: check sock index in nbd_read_stat()
  nbd: don't start request if nbd_queue_rq() failed
