commit e30cc79cc80fd919b697a15c5000d9f57487de8e upstream.

Syzbot reports a NULL-ptr deref in the kref_put() call:

BUG: KASAN: null-ptr-deref in media_request_put drivers/media/mc/mc-request.c:81 [inline]
kref_put include/linux/kref.h:64 [inline]
media_request_put drivers/media/mc/mc-request.c:81 [inline]
media_request_close+0x4d/0x170 drivers/media/mc/mc-request.c:89

exit_to_usermode_loop arch/x86/entry/common.c:165 [inline]
prepare_exit_to_usermode+0x48e/0x600 arch/x86/entry/common.c:196

What led to this crash was an injected memory allocation failure in
media_request_alloc():

FAULT_INJECTION: forcing a failure.
name failslab, interval 1, probability 0, space 0, times 0
should_failslab+0x5/0x20
kmem_cache_alloc_trace+0x57/0x300
? anon_inode_getfile+0xe5/0x170

? media_poll+0x110/0x110
__se_sys_ioctl+0xf9/0x160
do_syscall_64+0xf3/0x1b0

When that allocation fails, filp->private_data is left uninitialized
which media_request_close() does not expect and crashes.

To avoid this, reorder media_request_alloc() such that
allocating the struct file happens as the last step thus
media_request_close() will no longer get called for a partially created
media request.
