quarantine_remove_cache() frees all pending objects that belong to the
cache, before we destroy the cache itself. However there are currently
two possibilities how it can fail to do so.
First, another thread can hold some of the objects from the cache in
temp list in quarantine_put(). quarantine_put() has a windows of
enabled interrupts, and on_each_cpu() in quarantine_remove_cache() can
finish right in that window. These objects will be later freed into the
destroyed cache.
Then, quarantine_reduce() has the same problem. It grabs a batch of
objects from the global quarantine, then unlocks quarantine_lock and
then frees the batch. quarantine_remove_cache() can finish while some
objects from the cache are still in the local to_free list in
quarantine_reduce().
Fix the race with quarantine_put() by disabling interrupts for the whole
duration of quarantine_put(). In combination with on_each_cpu() in
quarantine_remove_cache() it ensures that quarantine_remove_cache()
either sees the objects in the per-cpu list or in the global list.
Fix the race with quarantine_reduce() by protecting quarantine_reduce()
with srcu critical section and then doing synchronize_srcu() at the end
of quarantine_remove_cache().
I've done some assessment of how good synchronize_srcu() works in this
case. And on a 4 CPU VM I see that it blocks waiting for pending read
critical sections in about 2-3% of cases. Which looks good to me.
I suspect that these races are the root cause of some GPFs that I
episodically hit. Previously I did not have any explanation for them.

I am not sure about backporting. The bug is quite hard to trigger, I've
seen it few times during our massive continuous testing (however, it
could be cause of some other episodic stray crashes as it leads to
memory corruption...). If it is triggered, the consequences are very
bad -- almost definite bad memory corruption. The fix is non trivial
and has chances of introducing new bugs. I am also not sure how
actively people use KASAN on older releases.
