+Subject: [PATCH] tmpfs: fix use-after-free of mempolicy object
+
+The tmpfs remount logic preserves filesystem mempolicy if the mpol=M
+option is not specified in the remount request.  A new policy can be
+specified if mpol=M is given.
+
+Before this patch remounting an mpol bound tmpfs without specifying
+mpol= mount option in the remount request would set the filesystem's
+mempolicy object to a freed mempolicy object.
+
+To reproduce the problem boot a DEBUG_PAGEALLOC kernel and run:
+    # mkdir /tmp/x
+
+    # mount -t tmpfs -o size=100M,mpol=interleave nodev /tmp/x
+
+    # grep /tmp/x /proc/mounts
+    nodev /tmp/x tmpfs rw,relatime,size=102400k,mpol=interleave:0-3 0 0
+
+    # mount -o remount,size=200M nodev /tmp/x
+
+    # grep /tmp/x /proc/mounts
+    nodev /tmp/x tmpfs rw,relatime,size=204800k,mpol=??? 0 0
+        # note ? garbage in mpol=... output above
+
+    # dd if=/dev/zero of=/tmp/x/f count=1
+        # panic here
+
+Panic:
+    BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at           (null)
+    IP: [<          (null)>]           (null)
+    [...]
+    Oops: 0010 [#1] SMP DEBUG_PAGEALLOC
+    Call Trace:
+      mpol_shared_policy_init+0xa5/0x160
+      shmem_get_inode+0x209/0x270

+      compat_sys_open+0x1b/0x20
+      cstar_dispatch+0x7/0x1f
+
+Non-debug kernels will not crash immediately because referencing the
+dangling mpol will not cause a fault.  Instead the filesystem will
+reference a freed mempolicy object, which will cause unpredictable
+behavior.
+
+The problem boils down to a dropped mpol reference below if
+shmem_parse_options() does not allocate a new mpol:
+
+    config = *sbinfo
+    shmem_parse_options(data, &config, true)
+    mpol_put(sbinfo->mpol)
+    sbinfo->mpol = config.mpol  /* BUG: saves unreferenced mpol */
+
+This patch avoids the crash by not releasing the mempolicy if
+shmem_parse_options() doesn't create a new mpol.
+
+How far back does this issue go? I see it in both 2.6.36 and 3.3.  I did
+not look back further.
