net-timestamp: avoid use-after-free in ip_recv_error
Syzkaller reported a use-after-free in ip_recv_error at line info->ipi_ifindex = skb->dev->ifindex; This function is called on dequeue from the error queue, at which point the device pointer may no longer be valid. Save ifindex on enqueue in __skb_complete_tx_timestamp, when the pointer is valid or NULL. Store it in temporary storage skb->cb. It is safe to reference skb->dev here, as called from device drivers or dev_queue_xmit. The exception is when called from tcp_ack_tstamp; in that case it is NULL and ifindex is set to 0 (invalid). Do not return a pktinfo cmsg if ifindex is 0. This maintains the current behavior of not returning a cmsg if skb->dev was NULL. On dequeue, the ipv4 path will cast from sock_exterr_skb to in_pktinfo. Both have ifindex as their first element, so no explicit conversion is needed. This is by design, introduced in commit 0b922b7a829c ("net: original ingress device index in PKTINFO"). For ipv6 ip6_datagram_support_cmsg converts to in6_pktinfo.
