commit f7fcc98dfc2d136722007fec0debbed761679b94 upstream.
The lockless workqueue garbage collector can race with packet path garbage collector to delete list nodes, as it calls tree_nodes_free() with the addresses of nodes that might have been free'd already from another cpu.
To fix this, split gc into two phases.
One phase to perform gc on the connections: From a locking perspective, this is the same as count_tree(): we hold rcu lock, but we do not change the tree, we only change the nodes' contents.
The second phase acquires the tree lock and reaps empty nodes. This avoids a race condition of the garbage collection vs. packet path: If a node has been free'd already, the second phase won't find it anymore.
This second phase is, from locking perspective, same as insert_tree().
The former only modifies nodes (list content, count), latter modifies the tree itself (rb_erase or rb_insert).
