CVE-2022-49687

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

virtio_net: fix xdp_rxq_info bug after suspend/resume

The following sequence currently causes a driver bug warning
when using virtio_net:

  # ip link set eth0 up
  # echo mem > /sys/power/state (or e.g. # rtcwake -s 10 -m mem)
  <resume>
  # ip link set eth0 down

  Missing register, driver bug
  WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 375 at net/core/xdp.c:138 xdp_rxq_info_unreg+0x58/0x60
  Call trace:
   xdp_rxq_info_unreg+0x58/0x60
   virtnet_close+0x58/0xac
   __dev_close_many+0xac/0x140
   __dev_change_flags+0xd8/0x210
   dev_change_flags+0x24/0x64
   do_setlink+0x230/0xdd0
   ...

This happens because virtnet_freeze() frees the receive_queue
completely (including struct xdp_rxq_info) but does not call
xdp_rxq_info_unreg(). Similarly, virtnet_restore() sets up the
receive_queue again but does not call xdp_rxq_info_reg().

Actually, parts of virtnet_freeze_down() and virtnet_restore_up()
are almost identical to virtnet_close() and virtnet_open(): only
the calls to xdp_rxq_info_(un)reg() are missing. This means that
we can fix this easily and avoid such problems in the future by
just calling virtnet_close()/open() from the freeze/restore handlers.

Aside from adding the missing xdp_rxq_info calls the only difference
is that the refill work is only cancelled if netif_running(). However,
this should not make any functional difference since the refill work
should only be active if the network interface is actually up.
