Subject: [PATCH] epoll: fix delayed initialization bug
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=53d2be79d5981b7efc8c5ec1169613bba95bde20;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

[PATCH] epoll: fix delayed initialization bug

Al found a potential problem in epoll_create(), where the
file->private_data member was set after fd_install().  This is obviously
wrong since another thread might do a close() on that fd# before we set the
file->private_data member.  This goes over 2.6.13 and passes a few basic
tests I've done here.

(akpm: snuck in a kzalloc() cleanup too)
