John Hurley 064c5d6881 net: sched: fix cleanup NULL pointer exception in act_mirr
A new mirred action is created by the tcf_mirred_init function. This
contains a list head struct which is inserted into a global list on
successful creation of a new action. However, after a creation, it is
still possible to error out and call the tcf_idr_release function. This,
in turn, calls the act_mirr cleanup function via __tcf_idr_release and
__tcf_action_put. This cleanup function tries to delete the list entry
which is as yet uninitialised, leading to a NULL pointer exception.

Fix this by initialising the list entry on creation of a new action.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
