The imperfect hash area can be updated while packets are traversing,
which will cause a use-after-free when 'tcf_exts_exec()' is called
with the destroyed tcf_ext.
CPU 0: CPU 1:
tcindex_set_parms tcindex_classify
tcindex_lookup
tcindex_lookup
tcf_exts_change
tcf_exts_exec [UAF]
Stop operating on the shared area directly, by using a local copy,
and update the filter with 'rcu_replace_pointer()'. Delete the old
filter version only after a rcu grace period elapsed.
Fixes: 9b0d4446b5 ("net: sched: avoid atomic swap in tcf_exts_change")

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.
