Mark Zhang 8edab8a72d RDMA/mlx5: Initialize obj_event->obj_sub_list before xa_insert
The obj_event may be loaded immediately after inserted, then if the
list_head is not initialized then we may get a poisonous pointer.  This
fixes the crash below:

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 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.
