Subject: [PATCH] nfsd: don't ignore the return code of svc_proc_register()

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@...kaller.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.
