base/node.c: initialize the accessor list before registering

Browse source

[ Upstream commit 48b5928e18 ]

The current code registers the node as available in the node array
before initializing the accessor list.  This makes it so that
anything which might access the accessor list as a result of
allocations will cause an undefined memory access.

In one example, an extension to access hmat data during interleave
caused this undefined access as a result of a bulk allocation
that occurs during node initialization but before the accessor
list is initialized.

Initialize the accessor list before making the node generally
available to the global system.
