net/x25: Fix null-ptr-deref caused by x25_disconnect
When the link layer is terminating, x25->neighbour will be set to NULL in x25_disconnect(). As a result, it could cause null-ptr-deref bugs in x25_sendmsg(),x25_recvmsg() and x25_connect(). One of the bugs is shown below. (Thread 1) | (Thread 2) x25_link_terminated() | x25_recvmsg() x25_kill_by_neigh() | ... x25_disconnect() | lock_sock(sk) ... | ... x25->neighbour = NULL //(1) | ... | x25->neighbour->extended //(2) The code sets NULL to x25->neighbour in position (1) and dereferences x25->neighbour in position (2), which could cause null-ptr-deref bug. This patch adds lock_sock() in x25_kill_by_neigh() in order to synchronize with x25_sendmsg(), x25_recvmsg() and x25_connect(). What`s more, the sock held by lock_sock() is not NULL, because it is extracted from x25_list and uses x25_list_lock to synchronize.
