Patches in the vfs.fixes branch should appear in linux-next soon. Please report any outstanding bugs that were missed during review in a new review to the original patch series allowing us to drop it. It's encouraged to provide Acked-bys and Reviewed-bys even though the patch has now been applied. If possible patch trailers will be updated. Note that commit hashes shown below are subject to change due to rebase, trailer updates or similar. If in doubt, please check the listed branch. tree: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs.git branch: vfs.fixes [1/1] netfs: Fix AIO error handling when doing write-through https://git.kernel.org/vfs/vfs/c/eb5239732070

If an error occurs whilst we're doing an AIO write in write-through mode, we may end up calling ->ki_complete() *and* returning an error from ->write_iter(). This can result in either a UAF (the ->ki_complete() func pointer may get overwritten, for example) or a refcount underflow in io_submit() as ->ki_complete is called twice. Fix this by making netfs_end_writethrough() - and thus netfs_perform_write() - unconditionally return -EIOCBQUEUED if we're doing an AIO write and wait for completion if we're not.
