target: Fix NULL dereference during LUN lookup + active I/O shutdown
When transport_clear_lun_ref() is shutting down a se_lun via
configfs with new I/O in-flight, it's possible to trigger a
NULL pointer dereference in transport_lookup_cmd_lun() due
to the fact percpu_ref_get() doesn't do any __PERCPU_REF_DEAD
checking before incrementing lun->lun_ref.count after
lun->lun_ref has switched to atomic_t mode.
This results in a NULL pointer dereference as LUN shutdown
code in core_tpg_remove_lun() continues running after the
existing ->release() -> core_tpg_lun_ref_release() callback
completes, and clears the RCU protected se_lun->lun_se_dev
pointer.
During the OOPs, the state of lun->lun_ref in the process
which triggered the NULL pointer dereference looks like
the following on v4.1.y stable code:
struct se_lun {
lun_link_magic = 4294932337,
lun_status = TRANSPORT_LUN_STATUS_FREE,
.....
lun_se_dev = 0x0,
lun_sep = 0x0,
.....
lun_ref = {
count = {
counter = 1
},
percpu_co...
