[PATCH 4.9 058/104] net: ipconfig: fix ic_close_devs() use-after-free

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

[ Upstream commit ffefb6f4d6ad699a2b5484241bc46745a53235d0 ]

Our chosen ic_dev may be anywhere in our list of ic_devs, and we may
free it before attempting to close others. When we compare d->dev and
ic_dev->dev, we're potentially dereferencing memory returned to the
allocator. This causes KASAN to scream for each subsequent ic_dev we
check.

As there's a 1-1 mapping between ic_devs and netdevs, we can instead
compare d and ic_dev directly, which implicitly handles the !ic_dev
case, and avoids the use-after-free. The ic_dev pointer may be stale,
but we will not dereference it.

Original splat:
