Commit c7423dbdbc9e ("ima: Handle -ESTALE returned by
ima_filter_rule_match()") introduced call to ima_lsm_copy_rule within a
RCU read-side critical section which contains kmalloc with GFP_KERNEL.
This implies a possible sleep and violates limitations of RCU read-side
critical sections on non-PREEMPT systems.

Sleeping within RCU read-side critical section might cause
synchronize_rcu() returning early and break RCU protection, allowing a
UAF to happen.

The root cause of this issue could be described as follows:
|	Thread A	|	Thread B	|
|			|ima_match_policy	|
|			|  rcu_read_lock	|
|ima_lsm_update_rule	|			|
|  synchronize_rcu	|			|
|			|    kmalloc(GFP_KERNEL)|
|			|      sleep		|
==> synchronize_rcu returns early
|  kfree(entry)		|			|
|			|    entry = entry->next|
==> UAF happens and entry now becomes NULL (or could be anything).
|			|    entry->action	|
==> Accessing entry might cause panic.

To fix this issue, we are converting all kmalloc that is called within
RCU read-side critical section to use GFP_ATOMIC.

v3:
  ima_lsm_copy_rule takes a GFP flag as input as well.
v2:
  Changed the audit_rule_init security hook to accept a new GFP flag, as
per Stephen's suggestion.

I would move the problem description before the traceback.

With the exception of one small gotcha (see below), this looks okay to
me.  At Mimi's request I'm going to merge this into the LSM tree, via
lsm/stable-6.10, where I'll give it a few days in linux-next before
sending it up to Linus.

Thanks everyone :)

You forgot to add the new @gfp parameter to the function's header
comment block.  I'm going to add the following as the text is used in
other Smack functions, if anyone has any objections please let me know.

  " * @gfp: type of the memory for the allocation"
