    selinux: fix inode security list corruption · 923190d3

    sb_finish_set_opts() can race with inode_free_security()
    when initializing inode security structures for inodes
    created prior to initial policy load or by the filesystem
    during ->mount().   This appears to have always been
    a possible race, but commit 3dc91d43 ("SELinux:  Fix possible
    NULL pointer dereference in selinux_inode_permission()")
    made it more evident by immediately reusing the unioned
    list/rcu element  of the inode security structure for call_rcu()
    upon an inode_free_security().  But the underlying issue
    was already present before that commit as a possible use-after-free
    of isec.
    
    Shivnandan Kumar reported the list corruption and proposed
    a patch to split the list and rcu elements out of the union
    as separate fields of the inode_security_struct so that setting
    the rcu element would not affect the list element.  However,
    this would merely hide the issue and not truly fix the code.
    
    This patch instead moves up the deletion of the list entry
    prior to dropping the sbsec->isec_lock initially.  Then,
    if the inode is dropped subsequently, there will be no further
    references to the isec.
