To avoid potential UAF issues during module removal races, we use
pde_set_flags() to save proc_ops flags in PDE itself before
proc_register(), and then use pde_has_proc_*() helpers instead of directly
dereferencing pde->proc_ops->*.
However, the pde_set_flags() call was missing when creating net related
proc files. This omission caused incorrect behavior which FMODE_LSEEK was
being cleared inappropriately in proc_reg_open() for net proc files. Lars
reported it in this link[1].
Fix this by ensuring pde_set_flags() is called when register proc entry,
and add NULL check for proc_ops in pde_set_flags().
[wangzijie1@honor.com: stash pde->proc_ops in a local const variable, per Christian]

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 reStructuredText 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.
