Check the return of init_srcu_struct(), which can fail due to OOM, when
initializing the page track mechanism.  Lack of checking leads to a NULL
pointer deref found by a modified syzkaller.

I'd drop reported-by. It's not a person (I guess) and the desc
is self-contained already.

Anyway,

Neither myself nor Vitaly provided an SOB, nor is one needed.  Review feedback
can be attributed/noted in the part that git ignores (below the three dashes).

Before moving forward with a fix, I'd like to get Paolo's input on dropping
track_srcu in favor of kvm->srcu and avoiding this altogheter.  Note, Paolo is on
vacation at the moment, so this won't get attention for a week or more.

The reason for track_srcu's existence is to avoid complications in 
kvm_arch_flush_shadow_memslot, which is called from the _write_ side of 
kvm->srcu but is on the _read_ side of track_srcu.

I think this should be fixed easily by taking slots_lock in 
kvm_page_track_register_notifier and kvm_page_track_unregister_notifier, 
however it's a bit more complicated from the point of view of the lock 
hierarchy and possible deadlocks.

So I'm open to patches that drop track_srcu, but for now I applied this 
patch.

Paolo
