Currently, nfsd_proc_stat_init() ignores the return value of
svc_proc_register(). If the procfile creation fails, then the kernel
will WARN when it tries to remove the entry later.

Fix nfsd_proc_stat_init() to return the same type of pointer as
svc_proc_register(), and fix up nfsd_net_init() to check that and fail
the nfsd_net construction if it occurs.

svc_proc_register() can fail if the dentry can't be allocated, or if an
identical dentry already exists. The second case is pretty unlikely in
the nfsd_net construction codepath, so if this happens, return -ENOMEM.

Fixes: 93483ac5fec6 ("nfsd: expose /proc/net/sunrpc/nfsd in net namespaces")
Reported-by: syzbot+e34ad04f27991521104c@syzkaller.appspotmail.com
Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-nfs/67a47501.050a0220.19061f.05f9.GAE@google.com/

I looked at the console log from the report, and syzkaller is doing
fault injection on allocations. You can see the stack where the "nfsd"
directory under /proc failed to be created due to one. This is a pretty
unlikely bug under normal circumstances, but it's simple to fix. The
problem predates the patch in Fixes:, but it's not worth the effort to
backport this to anything earlier.

I'd prefer to document this by labeling the actual commit that
introduced the problem in the Fixes: tag, then using

"Cc: stable # vN.M"

to block automatic backporting to LTS kernels where this patch won't
apply cleanly. I can derive the values of N and M from the commit you
mention above, but do you happen to know the actual culprit commit?

Unfortunately this bug goes back to the initial 2.6.12 import into git.
I didn't look earlier. Note that nfsd is not alone here. Ignoring the
result of proc_create_data() is very common.

If you want to drop the Fixes: tag, and add the Cc: stable instead,
then that's fine with me. Whatever works best.

OK. If we don't know the culprit, then a lone "Cc: stable" should be
sufficient.

Applied to nfsd-testing, thanks!
