Subject: [PATCH] bpf: cgroup: remove WARN_ON at bpf_cgroup_link_release

From: Dongliang Mu <[email protected]>

When syzkaller injects fault into memory allocation at
bpf_prog_array_alloc, the kernel encounters a memory failure and
returns non-zero, thus leading to one WARN_ON at
bpf_cgroup_link_release. The stack trace is as follows:

__kmalloc+0x7e/0x3d0
bpf_prog_array_alloc+0x4f/0x60
compute_effective_progs+0x132/0x580
? __sanitizer_cov_trace_pc+0x1a/0x40
update_effective_progs+0x5e/0x260
__cgroup_bpf_detach+0x293/0x760
bpf_cgroup_link_release+0xad/0x400
bpf_link_free+0xca/0x190
bpf_link_put+0x161/0x1b0
bpf_link_release+0x33/0x40
__fput+0x286/0x9f0

Fix this by removing the WARN_ON for __cgroup_bpf_detach.

"Fixing" by removing WARN_ON is just papering over the issue which in this case as
mentioned is allocation failure on detach/teardown when allocating and recomputing
effective prog arrays..

Hi Daniel,

you're right. This is not a good fix, any idea to fix the underlying
bug perfectly?
