Subject[PATCH 3.16 115/217] ppp: ensure file->private_data can't be overridden
3.16.35-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Guillaume Nault <g.nault@alphalink.fr>

commit e8e56ffd9d2973398b60ece1f1bebb8d67b4d032 upstream.

Locking ppp_mutex must be done before dereferencing file->private_data,
otherwise it could be modified before ppp_unattached_ioctl() takes the
lock. This could lead ppp_unattached_ioctl() to override ->private_data,
thus leaking reference to the ppp_file previously pointed to.

v2: lock all ppp_ioctl() instead of just checking private_data in
ppp_unattached_ioctl(), to avoid ambiguous behaviour.

Fixes: f3ff8a4d80e8 ("ppp: push BKL down into the driver")
