[PATCH] nfsd: prevent NULL ptr derefs on fault injection

From: Sasha Levin
Date: Tue Nov 27 2012 - 11:31:15 EST


A recent patch series has moved hashtable initialization to when the net
struct is initialized.

When injecting faults, we tried accessing the hashtables even if the struct
wasn't really initialized (nfsd wasn't in use) - this caused a NULL ptr
deref.

A simple test would be:

echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/nfsd/forget_locks
