commit f7daefe4231e57381d92c2e2ad905a899c28e402 upstream.
CPU0: CPU1:
backing_dev_show backing_dev_store
...... ......
file = zram->backing_dev;
down_read(&zram->init_lock); down_read(&zram->init_init_lock)
file_path(file, ...); zram->backing_dev = backing_dev;
up_read(&zram->init_lock); up_read(&zram->init_lock);
gets the value of zram->backing_dev too early in backing_dev_show, which
resultin the value being NULL at the beginning, and not NULL later.
