commit97d9fba9a8upstream. Currently, netconsole cleans up the netpoll structure before disabling the target. This approach can lead to race conditions, as message senders (write_ext_msg() and write_msg()) check if the target is enabled before using netpoll. The sender can validate that the target is enabled, but, the netpoll might be de-allocated already, causing undesired behaviours. This patch reverses the order of operations: 1. Disable the target 2. Clean up the netpoll structure This change eliminates the potential race condition, ensuring that no messages are sent through a partially cleaned-up netpoll structure.
