From: Md Haris Iqbal <haris.iqbal@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Fixes: 2de6c8de192b ("block/rnbd: server: main functionality")
Reported-by: kernel test robot <rong.a.chen@xxxxxxxxx>
Signed-off-by: Md Haris Iqbal <haris.iqbal@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
The rnbd_server module's communication manager initialization depends on the
registration of the "network namespace subsystem" of the RDMA CM agent module.
As such, when the kernel is configured to load the rnbd_server and the RDMA
cma module during initialization; and if the rnbd_server module is initialized
before RDMA cma module, a null ptr dereference occurs during the RDMA bind
operation.
This patch delays the initialization of the rnbd_server module to the
late_initcall level, since RDMA cma module uses module_init which puts it into
the device_initcall level.
