The ax25_kill_by_device() will set s->ax25_dev = NULL and
call ax25_disconnect() to change states of ax25_cb and
sock, if we call ax25_bind() before ax25_kill_by_device().
However, if we call ax25_bind() again between the window of
ax25_kill_by_device() and ax25_dev_device_down(), the values
and states changed by ax25_kill_by_device() will be reassigned.
Finally, ax25_dev_device_down() will deallocate net_device.
If we dereference net_device in syscall functions such as
ax25_release(), ax25_sendmsg(), ax25_getsockopt(), ax25_getname()
and ax25_info_show(), a UAF bug will occur.
One of the possible race conditions is shown below:
(USE) | (FREE)
ax25_bind() |
| ax25_kill_by_device()
ax25_bind() |
ax25_connect() | ...
| ax25_dev_device_down()
| ...
| dev_put_track(dev, ...) //FREE
ax25_release() | ...
ax25_send_control() |
alloc_skb() //USE |
the corresponding fail log is shown below:

In order to fix these UAF bugs caused by rebinding operation,
this patch adds dev_hold_track() into ax25_bind() and
corresponding dev_put_track() into ax25_kill_by_device().
