[PATCH] NFSv4.1: handle memory allocation failure in nfs4_schedule_state_manager()

From: ChenXiaoSong
Date: Fri Nov 11 2022 - 10:08:59 EST


If memory allocation fail in nfs4_schedule_state_manager() when mount
NFSv4.1/NFSv4.2, nfs4_run_state_manager() will not be called, and current
construction state will never be marked as ready or failed,
nfs_wait_client_init_complete() will wait forever, as shown below:

syscall(mount)
...
nfs4_init_client
nfs4_discover_server_trunking
nfs41_discover_server_trunking
nfs4_schedule_state_manager
kthread_run /* nfs4_run_state_manager() will not be called */
kthread_create
kthread_create_on_node
__kthread_create_on_node
create = kmalloc() = NULL
return ERR_PTR(-ENOMEM)
nfs_wait_client_init_complete /* wait forever */

Fix this by checking return value of nfs4_schedule_state_manager() which
can indicate whether kernel thread is created successful.
