Breno Leitao 5d7cea681d net: netconsole: Disable target before netpoll cleanup
commit 97d9fba9a812cada5484667a46e14a4c976ca330 upstream.

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.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
