sched_ext: Don't BUG_ON a destroyed DSQ in process_deferred_reenq_users

Type: advisorySource: Official CVE List1 source record

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: sched_ext: Don't BUG_ON a destroyed DSQ in process_deferred_reenq_users scx_bpf_dsq_reenq() queues a deferred reenq (dru) that runs from run_deferred(), not ops.dispatch(). If the DSQ is destroyed before the dru runs, process_deferred_reenq_users() sees dsq->id == SCX_DSQ_INVALID and hits the BUG_ON. destroy_dsq() doesn't flush pending drus, so just skip. tj: Read dsq->id once with READ_ONCE(). Reading it separately in the INVALID check and the BUG_ON would leave a window where destroy_dsq() can invalidate the id between the two reads and still trigger the BUG_ON.
