From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit c7256f579f8302ce2c038181c30060d0b40017b2 ] This is the first part to fix following syzbot report : console output: https://syzkaller.appspot.com/x/log.txt?x=145378e6400000 kernel config: https://syzkaller.appspot.com/x/.config?x=443816db871edd66 dashboard link: https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?extid=e662df0ac1d753b57e80 Following patch is fixing the race condition, but it seems safer to initialize this mutex at tfile creation anyway.
