Sabrina Dubroca e8370258ca xfrm: fix rcu usage in xfrm_get_type_offload
commit 2f10a61cee upstream.

request_module can sleep, thus we cannot hold rcu_read_lock() while
calling it. The function also jumps back and takes rcu_read_lock()
again (in xfrm_state_get_afinfo()), resulting in an imbalance.

This codepath is triggered whenever a new offloaded state is created.

Fixes: ffdb5211da ("xfrm: Auto-load xfrm offload modules")

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
