cgroup: avoid null de-ref in css_rstat_exit()
commit eea51c6e3f6675b795f6439eaa960eb2948d6905 upstream. css_rstat_exit() may be called asynchronously in scenarios where preceding calls to css_rstat_init() have not completed. One such example is this sequence below: css_create(...) { ... init_and_link_css(css, ...); err = percpu_ref_init(...); if (err) goto err_free_css; err = cgroup_idr_alloc(...); if (err) goto err_free_css; err = css_rstat_init(css, ...); if (err) goto err_free_css; ... err_free_css: INIT_RCU_WORK(&css->destroy_rwork, css_free_rwork_fn); queue_rcu_work(cgroup_destroy_wq, &css->destroy_rwork); return ERR_PTR(err); } If any of the three goto jumps are taken, async cleanup will begin and css_rstat_exit() will be invoked on an uninitialized css->rstat_cpu. Avoid accessing the unitialized field by returning early in css_rstat_exit() if this is the case.
