commit 4bb1a53be85fcb1e24c14860e326a00cdd362c28 upstream.
syzbot is reporting use of uninitialized spinlock at gsmld_write() [1], for
commit 32dd59f ("tty: n_gsm: fix race condition in gsmld_write()")
allows accessing gsm->tx_lock before gsm_activate_mux() initializes it.
Since object initialization should be done right after allocation in order
to avoid accessing uninitialized memory, move initialization of
timer/work/waitqueue/spinlock from gsmld_open()/gsm_activate_mux() to
gsm_alloc_mux().

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.
