[PATCH 1/1] mm: Fix UAF when anon vma name is used after vma is freed

[Suren Baghdasaryan]

When adjacent vmas are being merged it can result in the vma that was
originally passed to madvise_update_vma being destroyed. In the current
implementation, the name parameter passed to madvise_update_vma points
directly to vma->anon_name->name and it is used after the call to
vma_merge. In the cases when vma_merge merges the original vma and
destroys it, this will result in use-after-free bug as shown below:

madvise_vma_behavior << passes vma->anon_name->name as name param
  madvise_update_vma(name)
    vma_merge
      __vma_adjust
        vm_area_free <-- frees the vma
    replace_vma_anon_name(name) <-- UAF

Fix this by passing madvise_update_vma a copy of the name.
