[PATCH 4.18 031/135] tun: initialize napi_mutex unconditionally

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Tue Oct 16 2018 - 13:11:37 EST


4.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit c7256f579f8302ce2c038181c30060d0b40017b2 ]

This is the first part to fix following syzbot report :

console output: https://syzkaller.appspot.com/x/log.txt?x=145378e6400000
kernel config: https://syzkaller.appspot.com/x/.config?x=443816db871edd66
dashboard link: https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?extid=e662df0ac1d753b57e80

Following patch is fixing the race condition, but it seems safer
to initialize this mutex at tfile creation anyway.
