media: dvb-core: Fix use-after-free due on race condition at dvb_net

A race condition may occur between the .disconnect function, which
is called when the device is disconnected, and the dvb_device_open()
function, which is called when the device node is open()ed.
This results in several types of UAFs.

The root cause of this is that you use the dvb_device_open() function,
which does not implement a conditional statement
that checks 'dvbnet->exit'.

So, add 'remove_mutex` to protect 'dvbnet->exit' and use
locked_dvb_net_open() function to check 'dvbnet->exit'.

media: use eth_hw_addr_set()

Commit 406f42fa0d3c ("net-next: When a bond have a massive amount
of VLANs...") introduced a rbtree for faster Ethernet address look
up. To maintain netdev->dev_addr in this tree we need to make all
the writes to it go through appropriate helpers.

Convert media from memcpy(... 6) and memcpy(... addr_len) to
eth_hw_addr_set():

Make sure we don't cast off const qualifier from dev->dev_addr.

media: dvb_net: avoid speculation from net slot

The risk of especulation is actually almost-non-existing here,
as there are very few users of TCP/IP using the DVB stack,
as, this is mainly used with DVB-S/S2 cards, and only by people
that receives TCP/IP from satellite connections, which limits
a lot the number of users of such feature(*).

(*) In thesis, DVB-C cards could also benefit from it, but I'm
yet to see a hardware that supports it.

Yet, fixing it is trivial.

commit efb9ab67255f ("[media] dvb_net: prepare to split a very
complex function") changed the ULE handling logic, simplifying it.
However, it forgot to keep the initialization for .priv and to
zero .ule_hist fields.

The lack of .priv cause crashes if dvb_net_ule() is called, as
the function assuems that .priv field to be initialized.

With regards to .ule_hist, the current logic is broken and don't
even compile if ULE_DEBUG. Fix it by making the debug vars static
again, and be sure to pass iov parameter to dvb_net_ule_check_crc().

networking: make skb_put & friends return void pointers

It seems like a historic accident that these return unsigned char *,
and in many places that means casts are required, more often than not.

Make these functions (skb_put, __skb_put and pskb_put) return void *
and remove all the casts across the tree, adding a (u8 *) cast only
where the unsigned char pointer was used directly, all done with the
following spatch:

@@
expression SKB, LEN;
typedef u8;
identifier fn = { skb_put, __skb_put };
@@
- *(fn(SKB, LEN))
+ *(u8 *)fn(SKB, LEN)

@@
expression E, SKB, LEN;
identifier fn = { skb_put, __skb_put };
type T;
@@
- E = ((T *)(fn(SKB, LEN)))
+ E = fn(SKB, LEN)

which actually doesn't cover pskb_put since there are only three
users overall.

A handful of stragglers were converted manually, notably a macro in
drivers/isdn/i4l/isdn_bsdcomp.c and, oddly enough, one of the many
instances in net/bluetooth/hci_sock.c. In the former file, I also
had to fix one whitespace problem spatch introduced.

[media] dvb: avoid warning in dvb_net

With gcc-5 or higher on x86, we can get a bogus warning in the
dvb-net code:

drivers/media/dvb-core/dvb_net.c: In function 'dvb_net_ule':
arch/x86/include/asm/string_32.h:78:22: error: '*((void *)&dest_addr+4)' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]

The problem here is that gcc doesn't track all of the conditions
to prove it can't end up copying uninitialized data.
This changes the logic around so we zero out the destination
address earlier when we determine that it is not set here.
This allows the compiler to figure it out.

circular buffer, enabled via an extra #ifdef option that it
is not at Kconfig. Enabling it will only make the Kernel to

net: deprecate eth_change_mtu, remove usage

With centralized MTU checking, there's nothing productive done by
eth_change_mtu that isn't already done in dev_set_mtu, so mark it as
deprecated and remove all usage of it in the kernel. All callers have been
audited for calls to alloc_etherdev* or ether_setup directly, which means
they all have a valid dev->min_mtu and dev->max_mtu. Now eth_change_mtu
prints out a netdev_warn about being deprecated, for the benefit of
out-of-tree drivers that might be utilizing it.

Of note, dvb_net.c actually had dev->mtu = 4096, while using
eth_change_mtu, meaning that if you ever tried changing it's mtu, you
couldn't set it above 1500 anymore. It's now getting dev->max_mtu also set
to 4096 to remedy that.

[media] dvb: push down ioctl lock in dvb_usercopy

Since most dvb ioctls wrap their real work with dvb_usercopy, the static mutex
used in dvb_usercopy effectively is a global lock for dvb ioctls.
Unfortunately, frontend ioctls can be blocked by the frontend thread for
several seconds; this leads to unacceptable lock contention. Mitigate that by
pushing the mutex from dvb_usercopy down to the individual, device specific
ioctls.
There are 10 such ioctl functions using dvb_usercopy, either calling it
directly, or via the trivial wrapper dvb_generic_ioctl. The following already
employ their own locking and look safe:
• dvb_demux_ioctl (as per dvb_demux_do_ioctl)
• dvb_dvr_ioctl (as per dvb_dvr_do_ioctl)
• dvb_osd_ioctl (as per single non-trivial callee)
• fdtv_ca_ioctl (as per callees)
• dvb_frontend_ioctl
The following functions do not, and are thus changed to use a device specific
mutex:
• dvb_net_ioctl (as per dvb_net_do_ioctl)
• dvb_ca_en50221_io_ioctl (as per dvb_ca_en50221_io_do_ioctl)
• dvb_video_ioctl
• dvb_audio_ioctl
• dvb_ca_ioctl

[media] dvb: move the dvb core one level up

just like the V4L2 core, move the DVB core to drivers/media, as the
intention is to get rid of both "video" and "dvb" directories.
