vxlan: mdb: Fix use-after-free in vxlan_mdb_flush()

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

vxlan: mdb: Fix use-after-free in vxlan_mdb_flush()

vxlan_mdb_flush() iterates over the MDB entries using
hlist_for_each_entry_safe(), which only tolerates the removal of the
current entry. Contrary to the comment above the loop, the removal of an
entry can trigger the removal of another entry.

Flushing the remotes of a (*, G) entry also removes the (S, G) entries
that were created for its source list, once they are left without
remotes:

vxlan_mdb_remotes_flush()
-> vxlan_mdb_remote_del()
   -> vxlan_mdb_remote_srcs_del()
      -> vxlan_mdb_remote_src_del()
         -> vxlan_mdb_remote_src_fwd_del()
            -> __vxlan_mdb_del()
               -> vxlan_mdb_entry_put()

Such an entry can be located after the (*, G) entry in the list, as
vxlan_mdb_entry_get() returns an existing entry without moving it to the
head of the list. This order is obtained by adding the (S, G) entry
before the (*, G) entry, the latter with NLM_F_REPLACE, as the addition
of the source otherwise fails with -EEXIST. The (S, G) entry is then the
entry saved by hlist_for_each_entry_safe() and it is freed while the
(*, G) entry is processed. The next iteration calls hlist_del() on it
again, writing LIST_POISON1 to LIST_POISON2 [1].

Besides device deletion, the flush is also reachable from RTM_DELMDB
with NLM_F_BULK.

Fix by re-reading the next entry after the remotes were flushed. The
current entry cannot be removed by this flush, as source lists can only
be configured on (*, G) entries and the removed entries are (S, G)
entries. It is therefore still linked and its next pointer reflects the
removals.
