If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Trond Myklebust commit a4ee8d978e47e79d536226dccb48991f70091168 upstream. Commit e9406db20fecbfcab646bad157b4cfdc7cadddfb (lockd: per-net NSM client creation and destruction helpers introduced) contains a nasty race on initialisation of the per-net NSM client because it doesn't check whether or not the client is set after grabbing the nsm_create_mutex.
