OK, change folded, description written, commit pushed to #for-linus.
I have *NOT* sent pull request yet; folks, if you have objections,
it's time to yell. The commit in question is:

commit 8096378b2d15ccd9f185fd16c1255f8f2619e0d6
Author: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

fix apparmor dereferencing potentially freed dentry, sanitize __d_path() API

__d_path() API is asking for trouble and in case of apparmor d_namespace_path()
getting just that. The root cause is that when __d_path() misses the root
it had been told to look for, it stores the location of the most remote ancestor
in *root. Without grabbing references. Sure, at the moment of call it had
been pinned down by what we have in *path. And if we raced with umount -l, we
could have very well stopped at vfsmount/dentry that got freed as soon as
prepend_path() dropped vfsmount_lock.

It is safe to compare these pointers with pre-existing (and known to be still
alive) vfsmount and dentry, as long as all we are asking is "is it the same
address?". Dereferencing is not safe and apparmor ended up stepping into
that. d_namespace_path() really wants to examine the place where we stopped,
even if it's not connected to our namespace. As the result, it looked
at ->d_sb->s_magic of a dentry that might've been already freed by that point.
All other callers had been careful enough to avoid that, but it's really
a bad interface - it invites that kind of trouble.

On the other hand, we do *not* want show_mountinfo() to have to do mntput()/dput() -
doing that (or any IO, for that matter) under namespace_sem is a bad idea for
reasons of robustness, if nothing else.

The fix is fairly straightforward, even though it's bigger than I'd like:

* Give prepend_path() an extra argument for reporting which
fatherless thing has it reached if it has missed the root - struct
path *bastard. struct path *root becomes const on that *and* what
we put into *bastard is properly grabbed. We do that only if that
pointer is not NULL, of course. In any case we return 1 if we go
out through global_root:

* modify the callers accordingly; everything except __d_path()
will simply pass NULL as that extra argument and instead of checking
if root has been changed, just check if return value was positive.

* __d_path() gets the similar extra argument itself; if it's non-NULL
and we miss the root, the caller can expect to get (referenced) point where
the walk has stopped stored there. _Maybe_ it ought to fill it with
NULL/NULL otherwise; I've just done that in the only such caller before
calling __d_path(). If it is NULL *and* root has not been NULL/NULL (i.e.
we asked for subtree explicitly and have nowhere to put the stopping point),
we return NULL instead of pointer to relative pathname.

* seq_path_root() does _NOT_ return -ENAMETOOLONG (it's stupid anyway -
the normal seq_file logics will take care of growing the buffer and redoing
the call of ->show() just fine). However, if it gets path not reachable
from root, it returns SEQ_SKIP. The only caller adjusted (i.e. stopped
ignoring the return value as it used to do).

* unlike seq_path_root(), the caller in tomoyo passes NULL/NULL in
*root (it wants absolute path). It still calls with bastard == NULL, so
no references are grabbed.

* apparmor d_namespace_path() calls __d_path() passing it a pointer
to local struct path to fill. It's been earlier initialized to NULL/NULL
(see above in part about __d_path()), so the check for "has it been outside
of chroot jail" is simply bastard.mnt != NULL after the call. Moreover,
in this case it's safe to access vfsmount and dentry; we can do the checks
just fine, they won't be freed under us. One more thing - I've exported
uninlined variant of check_mnt() (called our_mnt(), for obvious reasons)
and used it here.

[AV: folded fix for braino in apparmor part spotted by jj; with that done
the patch survives his testing]
