Sven Eckelmann 8562759c8f batman-adv: Avoid free/alloc race when handling OGM2 buffer
commit a8d23cbbf6 upstream.

A B.A.T.M.A.N. V virtual interface has an OGM2 packet buffer which is
initialized using data from the netdevice notifier and other rtnetlink
related hooks. It is sent regularly via various slave interfaces of the
batadv virtual interface and in this process also modified (realloced) to
integrate additional state information via TVLV containers.

It must be avoided that the worker item is executed without a common lock
with the netdevice notifier/rtnetlink helpers. Otherwise it can either
happen that half modified data is sent out or the functions modifying the
OGM2 buffer try to access already freed memory regions.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
