Adding Casey to the To/CC line as I think this issue lies with Smack
and not NetLabel, although if someone believes otherwise please let me
know.

It looks like the problem is near the bottom of smk_set_cipso(), right
after smk_netlbl_mls() successfully creates the netlabel category
bitmap and attempts to free any old existing category bitmaps before
assigning the new value.  As I see it the problem is that the
smack_known pointer, @skp, which is host to the bitmap is located from
a RCU protected list meaning that it is possible for other tasks to be
accessing the category bitmap while it is being freed, or directly
afterwards given they may still be pointing at the old/freed data.

Casey obviously knows Smack much better than I do so I'll refrain from
going to far with a solution here in the likelihood that I'm off the
mark, but I suspect the right solution here would be to either
duplicate and replace the entry in the smack_known list using the
normal RCU list manipulation approach (easiest?), manage the
smack_known->smk_netlabel field as it's own RCU protected pointer
(less easy?), or something else entirely (wildcard!).  I'm not sure
this is a problem we can, or want to, solve at the NetLabel layer.
