[ Upstream commit 62ff373da2534534c55debe6c724c7fe14adb97f ]
In smc_init(), register_pernet_subsys(&smc_net_stat_ops) is called
without any error handling.
If it fails, registering of &smc_net_ops won't be reverted.
And if smc_nl_init() fails, &smc_net_stat_ops itself won't be reverted.
This leaves wild ops in subsystem linkedlist and when another module
tries to call register_pernet_operations() it triggers page fault:
BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: fffffbfff81b964c
RIP: 0010:register_pernet_operations+0x1b9/0x5f0
Call Trace:

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
