We add the new state to the nfsi->open_states list, making it
potentially visible to other threads, before we've finished initializing
it.
That wasn't a problem when all the readers were also taking the i_lock
(as we do here), but since we switched to RCU, there's now a possibility
that a reader could see the partially initialized state.
Symptoms observed were a crash when another thread called
nfs4_get_valid_delegation() on a NULL inode, resulting in an oops like:
BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffffffffffffffb0 ...
RIP: 0010:nfs4_get_valid_delegation+0x6/0x30 [nfsv4] ...

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
