act_ife: fix a potential deadlock
[ Upstream commit
5ffe57da29b3802baeddaa40909682bbb4cb4d48 ]
use_all_metadata() acquires read_lock(&ife_mod_lock), then calls
add_metainfo() which calls find_ife_oplist() which acquires the same
lock again. Deadlock!
Introduce __add_metainfo() which accepts struct tcf_meta_ops *ops
as an additional parameter and let its callers to decide how
to find it. For use_all_metadata(), it already has ops, no
need to find it again, just call __add_metainfo() directly.
And, as ife_mod_lock is only needed for find_ife_oplist(),
this means we can make non-atomic allocation for populate_metalist()
now.
