From: Thiago Rafael Becker <thiago.becker@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: kernel: make groups_sort calling a responsibility group_info allocators In testing, we found that nfsd threads may call set_groups in parallel for the same entry cached in auth.unix.gid, racing in the call of groups_sort, corrupting the groups for that entry and leading to permission denials for the client. This patch: - Make groups_sort globally visible. - Move the call to groups_sort to the modifiers of group_info - Remove the call to groups_sort from set_groups Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20171211151420.18655-1-thiago.becker@xxxxxxxxx Signed-off-by: Thiago Rafael Becker <thiago.becker@xxxxxxxxx> Reviewed-by: Matthew Wilcox <mawilcox@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Reviewed-by: NeilBrown <neilb@xxxxxxxx> Acked-by: "J.
