Subject: [PATCH] packet: fix races in fanout_add()

Multiple threads can call fanout_add() at the same time.

We need to grab fanout_mutex earlier to avoid races that could
lead to one thread freeing po->rollover that was set by another thread.

Do the same in fanout_release(), for peace of mind, and to help us
finding lockdep issues earlier.

Fixes: dc99f600698d ("packet: Add fanout support.")
Fixes: 0648ab70afe6 ("packet: rollover prepare: per-socket state")

CVE-2017-6346

(backported from commit d199fab63c11998a602205f7ee7ff7c05c97164b)
[smb: no po->rollover, verified against 3.2.y backport from bwh]

 Notes:
 - was fixed in 4.10 and 4.4.52, so only Trusty left to fix
 - in Trusty there is no po->rollover, so context had to be adjusted
   to make up for that.
 - The resulting changes look like the possible race window is much
   smaller than for later kernels, but on the other hand it cannot
   hurt to extend the mutex coverage by a bit.
