[ Upstream commit ae5a0456e0b4cfd7e61619e55251ffdf1bc7adfb ]
Modify netpoll_setup() and __netpoll_setup() to ensure that the netpoll structure (np) is left in a clean state if setup fails for any reason. This prevents carrying over misconfigured fields in case of partial setup success.
Key changes: - np->dev is now set only after successful setup, ensuring it's always NULL if netpoll is not configured or if netpoll_setup() fails. - np->local_ip is zeroed if netpoll setup doesn't complete successfully. - Added DEBUG_NET_WARN_ON_ONCE() checks to catch unexpected states. - Reordered some operations in __netpoll_setup() for better logical flow.
These changes improve the reliability of netpoll configuration, since it assures that the structure is fully initialized or totally unset.
