[PATCH X/Y SRU v2] UBUNTU: SAUCE: (noup) Bad page state in process genwqe_gunzip pfn:3c275 in the genwqe device driver

From: Gerald Schaefer <gerald.schaefer at de.ibm.com>

When interrupting an application which was allocating DMAable
memory, it was possible, that the DMA memory was deallocated twice, leading
to the error symptoms below.

BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1559194

Thanks to Gerald, who analyzed the problem and provided this
patch.

I agree with his analysis of the problem: ddcb_cmd_fixups() ->
genwqe_alloc_sync_sgl() (fails in f/lpage, but sgl->sgl != NULL
and f/lpage maybe also != NULL) -> ddcb_cmd_cleanup() ->
genwqe_free_sync_sgl() (double free, because sgl->sgl != NULL and
f/lpage maybe also != NULL)

In this scenario we would have exactly the kind of double free that
would explain the WARNING / Bad page state, and as expected it is
caused by broken error handling (cleanup).

Using the Ubuntu git source, tag Ubuntu-4.4.0-33.52, he was able to reproduce
the "Bad page state" issue, and with the patch on top he could not reproduce
it any more.
