Subject: [PATCH 3.18 35/92] pstore: Correctly initialize spinlock and flags

3.18-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Kees Cook <keescook@...omium.org>

commit 76d5692a58031696e282384cbd893832bc92bd76 upstream.

The ram backend wasn't always initializing its spinlock correctly. Since
it was coming from kzalloc memory, though, it was harmless on
architectures that initialize unlocked spinlocks to 0 (at least x86 and
ARM). This also fixes a possibly ignored flag setting too.

When running under CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK, the following Oops was visible:
