Roman Gushchin d5212b9964 RDMA/core: Don't expose hw_counters outside of init net namespace
[ Upstream commit a1ecb30f90856b0be4168ad51b8875148e285c1f ]

Commit 467f432a52 ("RDMA/core: Split port and device counter sysfs
attributes") accidentally almost exposed hw counters to non-init net
namespaces. It didn't expose them fully, as an attempt to read any of
those counters leads to a crash like this one:

The problem can be reproduced using the following steps:
  ip netns add foo
  ip netns exec foo bash
  cat /sys/class/infiniband/mlx4_0/hw_counters/*

The panic occurs because of casting the device pointer into an
ib_device pointer using container_of() in hw_stat_device_show() is
wrong and leads to a memory corruption.

However the real problem is that hw counters should never been exposed
outside of the non-init net namespace.

Fix this by saving the index of the corresponding attribute group
(it might be 1 or 2 depending on the presence of driver-specific
attributes) and zeroing the pointer to hw_counters group for compat
devices during the initialization.

With this fix applied hw_counters are not available in a non-init
net namespace:
  find /sys/class/infiniband/mlx4_0/ -name hw_counters
    /sys/class/infiniband/mlx4_0/ports/1/hw_counters
    /sys/class/infiniband/mlx4_0/ports/2/hw_counters
    /sys/class/infiniband/mlx4_0/hw_counters

  ip netns add foo
  ip netns exec foo bash
  find /sys/class/infiniband/mlx4_0/ -name hw_counters

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.
