Subject[PATCH 4.9 42/66] net/nfc: Avoid stalls when nfc_alloc_send_skb() returned NULL.
Date
4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Tetsuo Handa <penguin-kernel@I-love.SAKURA.ne.jp>

commit 3bc53be9db21040b5d2de4d455f023c8c494aa68 upstream.

syzbot is reporting stalls at nfc_llcp_send_ui_frame() [1]. This is
because nfc_llcp_send_ui_frame() is retrying the loop without any delay
when nonblocking nfc_alloc_send_skb() returned NULL.

Since there is no need to use MSG_DONTWAIT if we retry until
sock_alloc_send_pskb() succeeds, let's use blocking call.
Also, in case an unexpected error occurred, let's break the loop
if blocking nfc_alloc_send_skb() failed.
