[ Upstream commit 829933ef05a951c8ff140e814656d73e74915faf ]

For each device, the nosy driver allocates a pcilynx structure. A use-after-free might happen in the following scenario:

1. Open nosy device for the first time and call ioctl with command NOSY_IOC_START, then a new client A will be malloced and added to doubly linked list. 2. Open nosy device for the second time and call ioctl with command NOSY_IOC_START, then a new client B will be malloced and added to doubly linked list. 3. Call ioctl with command NOSY_IOC_START for client A, then client A will be readded to the doubly linked list. Now the doubly linked list is messed up. 4. Close the first nosy device and nosy_release will be called. In nosy_release, client A will be unlinked and freed. 5. Close the second nosy device, and client A will be referenced, resulting in UAF.

The root cause of this bug is that the element in the doubly linked list is reentered into the list.

Fix this bug by adding a check before inserting a client. If a client is already in the linked list, don't insert it.

The following KASAN report reveals it:

The buggy address belongs to the object at ffff888102ad7300 which belongs to the cache kmalloc-128 of size 128 The buggy address is located 96 bytes inside of 128-byte region [ffff888102ad7300, ffff888102ad7380)
