[PATCH 4.2 02/54] l2tp: protect tunnel->del_work by ref_count

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Fri Oct 23 2015 - 13:46:55 EST


4.2-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Alexander Couzens <lynxis@xxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 06a15f51cf3618e32a73871ee6a547ef7fd902b5 ]

There is a small chance that tunnel_free() is called before tunnel->del_work scheduled
resulting in a zero pointer dereference.
