From 86c1f5d5f49847f3023d57e9865efac7192c4b5d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Trond Myklebust Date: Tue, 6 Dec 2022 12:42:59 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] NFSv4.x: Fail client initialisation if state manager thread can't run [ Upstream commit b4e4f66901658fae0614dea5bf91062a5387eda7 ] If the state manager thread fails to start, then we should just mark the client initialisation as failed so that other processes or threads don't get stuck in nfs_wait_client_init_complete().
