Mike Kravetz 4742a35d9d hugetlbfs: initialize shared policy as part of inode allocation
Any time after inode allocation, destroy_inode can be called.  The
hugetlbfs inode contains a shared_policy structure, and
mpol_free_shared_policy is unconditionally called as part of
hugetlbfs_destroy_inode.  Initialize the policy as part of inode
allocation so that any quick (error path) calls to destroy_inode will be
handed an initialized policy.

syzkaller fuzzer found this bug, that resulted in the following:

README

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

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
