[PATCH MANUALSEL 4.19 1/4] x86/nmi: Make register_nmi_handler() more robust

From: Sasha Levin
Date: Sun Jun 05 2022 - 09:57:09 EST


From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit a7fed5c0431dbfa707037848830f980e0f93cfb3 ]

register_nmi_handler() has no sanity check whether a handler has been
registered already. Such an unintended double-add leads to list corruption
and hard to diagnose problems during the next NMI handling.

Init the list head in the static NMI action struct and check it for being
empty in register_nmi_handler().

[ bp: Fixups. ]
