nfsd: safer initialization order in find_file()
The alloc_init_file() first adds a file to the hash and then initializes its fi_inode, fi_id and fi_had_conflict. The uninitialized fi_inode could thus be erroneously checked by the find_file(), so move the hash insertion lower. The client_mutex should prevent this race in practice; however, we eventually hope to make less use of the client_mutex, so the ordering here is an accident waiting to happen. I didn't find whether the same can be true for two other fields, but the common sense tells me it's better to initialize an object before putting it into a global hash table :) Signed-off-by: NPavel Emelyanov <xemul@openvz.org> Signed-off-by: NJ.
