Tsirkin <mst@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon Sep 16 14:16:44 2024 -0400 virtio_console: fix misc probe bugs [ Upstream commit b9efbe2b8f0177fa97bfab290d60858900aa196b ] This fixes the following issue discovered by code review: after vqs have been created, a buggy device can send an interrupt. A control vq callback will then try to schedule control_work which has not been initialized yet. Similarly for config interrupt. Further, in and out vq callbacks invoke find_port_by_vq which attempts to take ports_lock which also has not been initialized. To fix, init all locks and work before creating vqs.
