Memory reordering may occur in nbd_genl_connect(), causing config_refs
to be set to 1 while nbd->config is still empty. Opening nbd at this
time will cause null-ptr-dereference.

nbd_open
nbd_get_config_unlocked
nbd_genl_connect
nbd_alloc_and_init_config
//memory reordered
refcount_set(&nbd->config_refs, 1) // 2
nbd->config
->null point
nbd->config = config // 1
Fix it by adding smp barrier to guarantee the execution sequence.

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.
