netlink_autobind has always set nlk_sk(sk)->groups to zero. This is unnecessary because sk_alloc already zeroes the entire structure. Since a socket can only be bound once netlink_autobind doesn't need to zero groups at all. This had been safe until I added mc_list. Now it is possible for netlink_bind to race against netlink_autobind running on the same socket on another CPU. The result would be a socket that's on mc_list with groups set to zero. This socket will be left on the list even after it is destroyed. The fix is to remove the zeroing in netlink_autobind. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S.
