commit 575689fc0ffa6c4bb4e72fd18e31a6525a6124e0 upstream.
xfs log io error will trigger xlog shut down, and end_io worker call xlog_state_shutdown_callbacks to unpin and release the buf log item. The race condition is that when there are some thread doing transaction commit and happened not to be intercepted by xlog_is_shutdown, then, these log item will be insert into CIL, when unpin and release these buf log item, UAF will occur. BTW, add delay before `xlog_cil_commit` can increase recurrence probability.
The following call graph actually encountered this bad situation. fsstress io end worker kworker/0:1H-216 xlog_ioend_work ->xlog_force_shutdown ->xlog_state_shutdown_callbacks ->xlog_cil_process_committed ->xlog_cil_committed ->xfs_trans_committed_bulk ->xfs_trans_apply_sb_deltas ->li_ops->iop_unpin(lip, 1); ->xfs_trans_getsb ->_xfs_trans_bjoin ->xfs_buf_item_init ->if (bip) { return 0;} //relog ->xlog_cil_commit ->xlog_cil_insert_items //insert into CIL ->xfs_buf_ioend_fail(bp); ->xfs_buf_ioend ->xfs_buf_item_done ->xfs_buf_item_relse ->xfs_buf_item_free
when cil push worker gather percpu cil and insert super block buf log item into ctx->log_items then uaf occurs.

The fix 575689fc0ffa ("xfs: fix super block buf log item UAF during force shutdown") was first introduced in v6.2-rc1. Syzkaller reports that the UAF bug is still present in linux-5.15.y (https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?extid=4d9a694803b65e21655b). I think a backport should be beneficial here.
