drivers: core: Fix use-after-free and double free on glue_dirsLAW.BR.4.0.r1-05200-89xx.0

There is a race condition between removing glue directory and adding a new
device under the glue directory. It can be reproduced in following test:

path 1: Add the child device under glue dir
device_add()
    get_device_parent()
        mutex_lock(&gdp_mutex);
        ....
        /*find parent from glue_dirs.list*/
        list_for_each_entry(k, &dev->class->p->glue_dirs.list, entry)
            if (k->parent == parent_kobj) {
                kobj = kobject_get(k);
                break;
            }
        ....
        mutex_unlock(&gdp_mutex);
        ....
    ....
    kobject_add()
        kobject_add_internal()
            create_dir()
                sysfs_create_dir_ns()
                    if (kobj->parent)
                        parent = kobj->parent->sd;
                    ....
                    kernfs_create_dir_ns(parent)
                        kernfs_new_node()
                            kernfs_get(parent)
                        ....
                        /* link in */
                        rc = kernfs_add_one(kn);
                        if (!rc)
                            return kn;

                        kernfs_put(kn)
                            ....
                            repeat:
                            kmem_cache_free(kn)
                            kn = parent;

                            if (kn) {
                                if (atomic_dec_and_test(&kn->count))
                                    goto repeat;
                            }
                        ....

path2: Remove last child device under glue dir
device_del()
    cleanup_device_parent()
        cleanup_glue_dir()
            mutex_lock(&gdp_mutex);
            if (!kobject_has_children(glue_dir))
                kobject_del(glue_dir);
            kobject_put(glue_dir);
            mutex_unlock(&gdp_mutex);

Before path2 remove last child device under glue dir, If path1 add a new
device under glue dir, the glue_dir kobject reference count will be
increase to 2 via kobject_get(k) in get_device_parent(). And path1 has
been called kernfs_new_node(), but not call kernfs_get(parent).
Meanwhile, path2 call kobject_del(glue_dir) beacause 0 is returned by
kobject_has_children(). This result in glue_dir->sd is freed and it's
reference count will be 0. Then path1 call kernfs_get(parent) will trigger
a warning in kernfs_get()(WARN_ON(!atomic_read(&kn->count))) and increase
it's reference count to 1. Because glue_dir->sd is freed by path2, the next
call kernfs_add_one() by path1 will fail(This is also use-after-free)
and call atomic_dec_and_test() to decrease reference count. Because the
reference count is decremented to 0, it will also call kmem_cache_free()
to free glue_dir->sd again. This will result in double free.

In order to avoid this happening, we we should not call kobject_del() on
path2 when the reference count of glue_dir is greater than 1. So we add a
conditional statement to fix it.

The following calltrace is captured in kernel 4.14 with the following patch
applied:
