Subject: xfrm: policy: init locks early
From: Florian Westphal <fw@xxxxxxxxx>
commit c282222a45cb9503cbfbebfdb60491f06ae84b49 upstream.
Dmitry reports following splat:
INFO: trying to register non-static key.
the code is fine but needs lockdep annotation.
turning off the locking correctness validator.

Problem is that when we get error during xfrm_net_init we will call
xfrm_policy_fini which will acquire xfrm_policy_lock before it was
initialized. Just move it around so locks get set up first.
