[PATCH v2] tipc: ensure head->lock is initialised

[Chris Packham]

tipc_named_node_up() creates a skb list. It passes the list to
tipc_node_xmit() which has some code paths that can call
skb_queue_purge() which relies on the list->lock being initialised.

The spin_lock is only needed if the messages end up on the receive path
but when the list is created in tipc_named_node_up() we don't
necessarily know if it is going to end up there.

Once all the skb list users are updated in tipc it will then be possible
to update them to use the unlocked variants of the skb list functions
and initialise the lock when we know the message will follow the receive
path.

I'm updating our products to use the latest kernel. One change that we have that
doesn't appear to have been upstreamed is related to the following soft lockup.

Eyeballing the code I think it can still happen since tipc_named_node_up
allocates struct sk_buff_head head on the stack so it could have arbitrary
content.

Changes in v2:
- fixup commit subject
- add more information to commit message from mailing list discussion
