ida: Free correct IDA bitmap
There's a relatively rare race where we look at the per-cpu preallocated IDA bitmap, see it's NULL, allocate a new one, and atomically update it. If the kmalloc() happened to sleep and we were rescheduled to a different CPU, or an interrupt came in at the exact right time, another task might have successfully allocated a bitmap and already deposited it. I forgot what the semantics of cmpxchg() were and ended up freeing the wrong bitmap leading to KASAN reporting a use-after-free. Dmitry found the bug with syzkaller & wrote the patch. I wrote the test case that will reproduce the bug without his patch being applied. Reported-by: Dmitry Vyukov <dvyukov@google.com> Signed-off-by: Matthew Wilcox <mawilcox@microsoft.com>
