Subject: [PATCH 5.14 169/172] KVM: x86: Handle SRCU initialization failure during page track init

From: Haimin Zhang <tcs_kernel@...cent.com>

commit eb7511bf9182292ef1df1082d23039e856d1ddfb upstream.

Check the return of init_srcu_struct(), which can fail due to OOM, when
initializing the page track mechanism.  Lack of checking leads to a NULL
pointer deref found by a modified syzkaller.
