inetpeer: add a missing read_seqretry() in inet_getpeer()
When performing a lockless lookup over the inet_peer rbtree,
if a matching node is found, inet_getpeer() returns it immediately
without validating the seqlock sequence.
This missing check introduces a race condition:
Trigger Path: When a host receives an incoming fragmented IPv4 packet,
ip4_frag_init() (in net/ipv4/ip_fragment.c) calls inet_getpeer_v4()
to track the peer.
The Race: If the packet is from a new source IP, CPU A acquires the
write_seqlock, allocates a new inet_peer node (p), sets its IP address
(daddr), and links it to the rbtree (rb_link_node).
Uninitialized Access: Due to the lack of memory barriers between
rb_link_node and the initialization of the rest of the struct
(like refcount_set(&p->refcnt, 1)), CPU A can make the node visible
to readers before its refcnt is initialized.
This is especially true on weakly-ordered architectures like ARM64
where the CPU can reorder the memory stores.
Lockless Reader: Concurrently, CPU B processes a second fragmented packet
from the same source IP. CPU B does a lockless lookup, finds the newly
inserted node, and returns it immediately.
Use-After-Free (UAF): CPU B reads p->refcnt as uninitialized garbage
(left over from previous kmalloc-128/192 allocations).
If the garbage is > 0, refcount_inc_not_zero(&p->refcnt) succeeds.
CPU A then executes refcount_set(&p->refcnt, 1), overwriting CPU B's increment.
When CPU B finishes with the fragment queue, it calls inet_putpeer(),
which drops the refcount to 0 and frees the node via RCU.
The node is now freed but remains linked in the rbtree,
resulting in a Use-After-Free in the rbtree.
