[for-linus][PATCH 08/13] ftrace: Fix null pointer dereference in ftrace_add_mod()
From: Steven Rostedt
Date: Sun Nov 20 2022 - 15:07:51 EST
From: Xiu Jianfeng <xiujianfeng@xxxxxxxxxx>
The @ftrace_mod is allocated by kzalloc(), so both the members {prev,next}
of @ftrace_mode->list are NULL, it's not a valid state to call list_del().
If kstrdup() for @ftrace_mod->{func|module} fails, it goes to @out_free
tag and calls free_ftrace_mod() to destroy @ftrace_mod, then list_del()
will write prev->next and next->prev, where null pointer dereference
happens.
BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000008
Oops: 0002 [#1] PREEMPT SMP NOPTI

Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception
So call INIT_LIST_HEAD() to initialize the list member to fix this issue.
