x86/mm: fix use-after-free of vma during userfaultfd fault
commit cb0631fd3cf9e989cd48293fe631cbc402aec9a9 upstream. Syzkaller with KASAN has reported a use-after-free of vma->vm_flags in __do_page_fault() with the following reproducer: mmap(&(0x7f0000000000/0xfff000)=nil, 0xfff000, 0x3, 0x32, 0xffffffffffffffff, 0x0) mmap(&(0x7f0000011000/0x3000)=nil, 0x3000, 0x1, 0x32, 0xffffffffffffffff, 0x0) r0 = userfaultfd(0x0) ioctl$UFFDIO_API(r0, 0xc018aa3f, &(0x7f0000002000-0x18)={0xaa, 0x0, 0x0}) ioctl$UFFDIO_REGISTER(r0, 0xc020aa00, &(0x7f0000019000)={{&(0x7f0000012000/0x2000)=nil, 0x2000}, 0x1, 0x0}) r1 = gettid() syz_open_dev$evdev(&(0x7f0000013000-0x12)="2f6465762f696e7075742f6576656e742300", 0x0, 0x0) tkill(r1, 0x7) The vma should be pinned by mmap_sem, but handle_userfault() might (in a return to userspace scenario) release it and then acquire again, so when we return to __do_page_fault() (with other result than VM_FAULT_RETRY), the vma might be gone. Specifically, per Andrea the scenario is "A return to userland to repeat the page fault later with a VM_FAULT_NOPAGE retval (potentially after handling any pending signal during the return to userland). The return to userland is identified whenever FAULT_FLAG_USER|FAULT_FLAG_KILLABLE are both set in vmf->flags" However, since commit a3c4fb7c9c2e ("x86/mm: Fix fault error path using unsafe vma pointer") there is a vma_pkey() read of vma->vm_flags after that point, which can thus become use-after-free. Fix this by moving the read before calling handle_mm_fault().
