net: do not reuse skbuff allocated from skbuff_fclone_cache in the skb cache
Some socket buffers allocated in the fclone cache (in __alloc_skb) can end-up in the following path[1]: napi_skb_finish __kfree_skb_defer napi_skb_cache_put The issue is napi_skb_cache_put is not fclone friendly and will put those skbuff in the skb cache to be reused later, although this cache only expects skbuff allocated from skbuff_head_cache. When this happens the skbuff is eventually freed using the wrong origin cache, and we can see traces similar to: [ 1223.947534] cache_from_obj: Wrong slab cache. skbuff_head_cache but object is from skbuff_fclone_cache [ 1223.948895] WARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 0 at mm/slab.h:442 kmem_cache_free+0x251/0x3e0 [ 1223.950211] Modules linked in: [ 1223.950680] CPU: 3 PID: 0 Comm: swapper/3 Not tainted 5.13.0+ #474 [ 1223.951587] Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS 1.14.0-3.fc34 04/01/2014 [ 1223.953060] RIP: 0010:kmem_cache_free+0x251/0x3e0 Leading sometimes to other memory related issues. Fix this by using __kfree_skb for fclone skbuff, similar to what is done the other place __kfree_skb_defer is called. [1] At least in setups using veth pairs and tunnels. Building a kernel with KASAN we can for example see packets allocated in sk_stream_alloc_skb hit the above path and later the issue arises when the skbuff is reused.
