    LOCKD: Fix a race when initialising nlmsvc_timeout · 06bed7d1
    Trond Myklebust authored
    This commit fixes a race whereby nlmclnt_init() first starts the lockd
    daemon, and then calls nlm_bind_host() with the expectation that
    nlmsvc_timeout has already been initialised. Unfortunately, there is no
    no synchronisation between lockd() and lockd_up() to guarantee that this
    is the case.
    
    Fix is to move the initialisation of nlmsvc_timeout into lockd_create_svc
    
    Fixes: 9a1b6bf8 ("LOCKD: Don't call utsname()->nodename...")
