In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: initialize DRC hash table before registering shrinker
shrinker_register() precedes the INIT_LIST_HEAD loop and the
drc_hashsize store. On weakly-ordered architectures (arm64, ppc),
a shrinker scan can observe drc_hashsize before the bucket list
heads are initialized, causing a NULL deref in the DRC shrinker
callback.
Move bucket initialization and the drc_hashsize store before
shrinker_register() so the hash table is fully initialized before
it becomes visible to the shrinker.
