dmaengine: fix use-after-free in dma_chan_put() and dma_release_channel()grafted
When dma_device_put() drops the last reference on chan->device->ref, dma_device_release() runs and may free the dma_device along with its channels. dma_chan_put() then still reads chan->device->owner via dma_chan_to_owner() for the trailing module_put(). KASAN catches it: slab-use-after-free in dma_chan_put+0x3e6/0x4c0 Read of size 8 by task insmod/6319 Freed by task 6319: kfree+0x225/0x470 dma_chan_put+0x395/0x4c0 dmaengine_put+0xf8/0x160 Cache the module owner in dma_chan_put() before the put so the trailing module_put() does not need chan->device.

+ * Strbuf's can be use in many ways: as a byte array, or to store arbitrary
+ * long, overflow safe strings.
+ *
+ * Strbufs has some invariants that are very important to keep in mind:
+ *
+ * 1. the ->buf member is always malloc-ed, hence strbuf's can be used to
+ * build complex strings/buffers whose final size isn't easily known.
+ *
+ * It is NOT legal to copy the ->buf pointer away.
+ * `strbuf_detach' is the operation that detaches a buffer from its shell
+ * while keeping the shell valid wrt its invariants.
+ *
+ * 2. the ->buf member is a byte array that has at least ->len + 1 bytes
+ * allocated. The extra byte is used to store a '\0', allowing the ->buf
+ * member to be a valid C-string. Every strbuf function ensure this
+ * invariant is preserved.
+ *
+ * Note that it is OK to "play" with the buffer directly if you work it
+ * that way:
+ *
+ * strbuf_grow(sb, SOME_SIZE);
+ * ... Here, the memory array starting at sb->buf, and of length
+ * ... strbuf_avail(sb) is all yours, and you are sure that
+ * ... strbuf_avail(sb) is at least SOME_SIZE.
+ * strbuf_setlen(sb, sb->len + SOME_OTHER_SIZE);
+ *
+ * Of course, SOME_OTHER_SIZE must be smaller or equal to strbuf_avail(sb).
+ *
+ * Doing so is safe, though if it has to be done in many places, adding the
+ * missing API to the strbuf module is the way to go.
+ *
+ * XXX: do _not_ assume that the area that is yours is of size ->alloc - 1
+ * even if it's true in the current implementation. Alloc is somehow a
+ * "private" member that should not be messed with.
