Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: Fix nsfd startup race (again)
Commit bd5ae9288d64 ("nfsd: register pernet ops last, unregister first")
has re-opened rpc_pipefs_event() race against nfsd_net_id registration
(register_pernet_subsys()) which has been fixed by commit bb7ffbf29e76
("nfsd: fix nsfd startup race triggering BUG_ON").
Restore the order of register_pernet_subsys() vs register_cld_notifier().
Add WARN_ON() to prevent a future regression.
