Thomas Gleixner 8aa7227a5d KVM: x86: Cancel pvclock_gtod_work on module removal
[ Upstream commit 594b27e677 ]

Nothing prevents the following:

  pvclock_gtod_notify()
    queue_work(system_long_wq, &pvclock_gtod_work);
  ...
  remove_module(kvm);
  ...
  work_queue_run()
    pvclock_gtod_work()	<- UAF

Ditto for any other operation on that workqueue list head which touches
pvclock_gtod_work after module removal.

Cancel the work in kvm_arch_exit() to prevent that.

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.
