From: Nikolay Aleksandrov nikolay@cumulusnetworks.com
[ Upstream commit 4adfa79fc254efb7b0eb3cd58f62c2c3f805f1ba ]
When we dump the ip6mr mfc entries via proc, we initialize an iterator with the table to dump but we don't clear the cache pointer which might be initialized from a prior read on the same descriptor that ended. This can result in lock imbalance (an unnecessary unlock) leading to other crashes and hangs. Clear the cache pointer like ipmr does to fix the issue. Thanks for the reliable reproducer.
Here's syzbot's trace: WARNING: bad unlock balance detected! 4.15.0-rc3+ #128 Not tainted syzkaller971460/3195 is trying to release lock (mrt_lock) at: [<000000006898068d>] ipmr_mfc_seq_stop+0xe1/0x130 net/ipv6/ip6mr.c:553 but there are no more locks to release!
