However, as soon as the padata_priv got enqueued on the reorder list, it can be completed from a different context, causing the reference to get released in the course. This would potentially cause UAFs from the subsequent padata_reorder() operations invoked from the enqueueing padata_do_serial() or from the reorder work. Note that this is a purely theroretical concern, the problem has never been actually observed -- it would require multiple pcrypt request submissions racing against each other, ultimately a pcrypt instance destruction (DELALG) short after request completions as well as unfortunate timing. However, for the sake of correctness, it is still worth fixing. Make padata_do_serial() grab a reference count on the parallel_data for the subsequent reorder operation(s). As long as the padata_priv has not been enqueued, this is safe, because as mentioned above, in-flight pdata_privs own a reference already. Note that padata_reorder() might schedule another padata_reorder() work and thus, care must be taken to not prematurely release that "reorder refcount" from padata_do_serial() again in case that has happened. Make padata_reorder() return a bool for indicating whether or not a reorder work has been scheduled. Let padata_do_serial() drop its refcount only if this is not the case. Accordingly, make the reorder work handler, invoke_padata_reorder(), drop it then as appropriate. A remark on the commit chosen for the Fixes tag reference below: before commit bbefa1dd6a6d ("crypto: pcrypt - Avoid deadlock by using per-instance padata queues"), the padata_parallel lifetime had been tied to the padata_instance. The padata_free() resp. padata_stop() issued a synchronize_rcu() before padata_free_pd() from the instance destruction path, rendering UAFs from the padata_do_serial()=>padata_reorder() invocations with BHs disabled impossible AFAICS. With that, the padata_reorder() work remains to be considered. Before commit b128a3040935 ("padata: allocate workqueue internally"), the workqueue got destroyed (from pcrypt), hence drained, before the padata instance destruction, but this change moved that to after the padata_free_pd() invocation from __padata_free(). So, while the Fixes reference from below is most likely technically correct, I would still like to reiterate that this problem is probably hard to trigger in practice, even more so before commit bbefa1dd6a6d ("crypto: pcrypt - Avoid deadlock by using per-instance padata queues").
