Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
ipv4: ip_tunnel: Fix suspicious RCU usage warning in ip_tunnel_find()<br />
<br />
The per-netns IP tunnel hash table is protected by the RTNL mutex and<br />
ip_tunnel_find() is only called from the control path where the mutex is<br />
taken.<br />
<br />
Add a lockdep expression to hlist_for_each_entry_rcu() in<br />
ip_tunnel_find() in order to validate that the mutex is held and to<br />
silence the suspicious RCU usage warning [1].<br />
<br />
