Commit 1af2dface5 ("af_unix: Don't access successor in unix_del_edges()
during GC.") fixed use-after-free by avoid accessing edge->successor while
GC is in progress.
However, there could be a small race window where another process could
call unix_del_edges() while gc_in_progress is true and __skb_queue_purge()
is on the way.
So, we need another marker for struct scm_fp_list which indicates if the
skb is garbage-collected.
This patch adds dead flag in struct scm_fp_list and set it true before
calling __skb_queue_purge().
Fixes: 1af2dface5 ("af_unix: Don't access successor in unix_del_edges() during GC.")

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use make htmldocs or
make pdfdocs. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
