net: core: netlink: add helper refcount dec and lock function
stable inclusion from linux-4.19.221 commit cd25f1099284a0cbe916344fc1e6c1ffed6c5306 category: bugfix CVE: CVE-2021-39713 -------------------------------- [ Upstream commit 6f99528e ] Rtnl lock is encapsulated in netlink and cannot be accessed by other modules directly. This means that reference counted objects that rely on rtnl lock cannot use it with refcounter helper function that atomically releases decrements reference and obtains mutex. This patch implements simple wrapper function around refcount_dec_and_lock that obtains rtnl lock if reference counter value reached 0. Signed-off-by:Vlad Buslov <vladbu@mellanox.com> Acked-by:
