Re: [PATCH-tip v2] sched: Fix use-after-free bug in dup_user_cpus_ptr()

Since commit 07ec77a1d4e8 ("sched: Allow task CPU affinity to be restricted on asymmetric systems"), the setting and clearing of user_cpus_ptr are done under pi_lock for arm64 architecture. However, dup_user_cpus_ptr() accesses user_cpus_ptr without any lock protection. When racing with the clearing of user_cpus_ptr in __set_cpus_allowed_ptr_locked(), it can lead to user-after-free and double-free in arm64 kernel.

How? the task cannot be in migrate_enable() and fork() at the same time, no?
