Subject: [PATCH] smackfs: Fix use-after-free in netlbl_catmap_walk()
Git-commit: 0817534ff9ea809fac1322c5c8c574be8483ea57
Patch-mainline: v5.16-rc1
References: stable-5.14.19

[ Upstream commit 0817534ff9ea809fac1322c5c8c574be8483ea57 ]

Syzkaller reported use-after-free bug as described in [1]. The bug is
triggered when smk_set_cipso() tries to free stale category bitmaps
while there are concurrent reader(s) using the same bitmaps.

Wait for RCU grace period to finish before freeing the category bitmaps
in smk_set_cipso(). This makes sure that there are no more readers using
the stale bitmaps and freeing them should be safe.
