Xin Long 6f3505588d sctp: leave the err path free in sctp_stream_init to sctp_stream_free
[ Upstream commit 181d8d2066 ]

A NULL pointer dereference was reported by Wei Chen:

  BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000000
  RIP: 0010:__list_del_entry_valid+0x26/0x80
  Call Trace:
   <TASK>
   sctp_sched_dequeue_common+0x1c/0x90
   sctp_sched_prio_dequeue+0x67/0x80
   __sctp_outq_teardown+0x299/0x380
   sctp_outq_free+0x15/0x20
   sctp_association_free+0xc3/0x440
   sctp_do_sm+0x1ca7/0x2210
   sctp_assoc_bh_rcv+0x1f6/0x340

This happens when calling sctp_sendmsg without connecting to server first.
In this case, a data chunk already queues up in send queue of client side
when processing the INIT_ACK from server in sctp_process_init() where it
calls sctp_stream_init() to alloc stream_in. If it fails to alloc stream_in
all stream_out will be freed in sctp_stream_init's err path. Then in the
asoc freeing it will crash when dequeuing this data chunk as stream_out
is missing.

As we can't free stream out before dequeuing all data from send queue, and
this patch is to fix it by moving the err path stream_out/in freeing in
sctp_stream_init() to sctp_stream_free() which is eventually called when
freeing the asoc in sctp_association_free(). This fix also makes the code
in sctp_process_init() more clear.

Note that in sctp_association_init() when it fails in sctp_stream_init(),
sctp_association_free() will not be called, and in that case it should
go to 'stream_free' err path to free stream instead of 'fail_init'.

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.

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.
