Ye Bin c5aa6ba112 fs/buffer: fix use-after-free when call bh_read() helper
[ Upstream commit 7375f22495e7cd1c5b3b5af9dcc4f6dffe34ce49 ]

There's issue as follows:
BUG: KASAN: stack-out-of-bounds in end_buffer_read_sync+0xe3/0x110
Read of size 8 at addr ffffc9000168f7f8 by task swapper/3/0

 Above issue happens when do ntfs3 filesystem mount, issue may happens
 as follows:
           mount                            IRQ
ntfs_fill_super
  read_cache_page
    do_read_cache_folio
      filemap_read_folio
        mpage_read_folio
	 do_mpage_readpage
	  ntfs_get_block_vbo
	   bh_read
	     submit_bh
	     wait_on_buffer(bh);
	                            blk_complete_reqs
				     scsi_io_completion
				      scsi_end_request
				       blk_update_request
				        end_bio_bh_io_sync
					 end_buffer_read_sync
					  __end_buffer_read_notouch
					   unlock_buffer

            wait_on_buffer(bh);--> return will return to caller

					  put_bh
					    --> trigger stack-out-of-bounds
In the mpage_read_folio() function, the stack variable 'map_bh' is
passed to ntfs_get_block_vbo(). Once unlock_buffer() unlocks and
wait_on_buffer() returns to continue processing, the stack variable
is likely to be reclaimed. Consequently, during the end_buffer_read_sync()
process, calling put_bh() may result in stack overrun.

If the bh is not allocated on the stack, it belongs to a folio.  Freeing
a buffer head which belongs to a folio is done by drop_buffers() which
will fail to free buffers which are still locked.  So it is safe to call
put_bh() before __end_buffer_read_notouch().

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.
