Subject: [PATCH kcsan 1/4] kcsan, debugfs: Move debugfs file creation out of early init
Date: Wed,  3 Mar 2021 16:40:37 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210304004040.25074-1-paulmck@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210304003750.GA24696@paulmck-ThinkPad-P72>

From: Marco Elver <elver@google.com>

Commit 56348560d495 ("debugfs: do not attempt to create a new file
before the filesystem is initalized") forbids creating new debugfs files
until debugfs is fully initialized.  This means that KCSAN's debugfs
file creation, which happened at the end of __init(), no longer works.
And was apparently never supposed to work!

However, there is no reason to create KCSAN's debugfs file so early.
This commit therefore moves its creation to a late_initcall() callback.
