Subject: ocfs2: initialize status waiters before publishing them
Date: Fri, 09 Oct 2026 09:43:43 +0800

o2net_prep_nsw() publishes its stack waiter in nn_status_idr and
nn_status_list under nn_lock, then initializes the wait queue and
completion status after releasing the lock.  A concurrent disconnect can
find that waiter through o2net_complete_nodes_nsw() and call wake_up()
before the wait queue has a valid lock and list head.  The sender can also
overwrite a completion status with its initial value.

Initialize the wait queue and status before publishing the waiter. 
nn_lock then orders publication against completion, and no reader can
observe a partially initialized object.  Leave the IDR allocation and its
failure handling unchanged.

A controlled case-modified test kernel used a synthetic connection to
enter the real send path and overlap publication with disconnect.  The
candidate completion and wake-up code were unchanged.  Its Oops includes:
