Subject: [PATCH v3] 9p/fd: set req refcount to zero to avoid uninitialized usage

When the new request allocated, the refcount will be zero if it is resued
one. But if the request is newly allocated from slab, it is not fully
initialized before add it to idr.

If the p9_read_work got a response before the refcount initiated. It will
use a uninitialized req, which will result in a bad request data struct.

Here is the logs from syzbot.

Corrupted memory at 0xffff88807eade00b [ 0xff 0x07 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00
0x00 0x00 . . . . . . . . ] (in kfence-#110):

Below is a similar scenario, the scenario in the syzbot log looks more
complicated than this one, but this patch can fix it.

T21124 p9_read_work
======================== second trans =================================
p9_client_walk
p9_client_rpc
p9_client_prepare_req
p9_tag_alloc
req = kmem_cache_alloc(p9_req_cache, GFP_NOFS);
tag = idr_alloc
<< preempted >>
req->tc.tag = tag;
/* req->[refcount/tag] == uninitialized */
m->rreq = p9_tag_lookup(m->client, m->rc.tag);
/* increments uninitalized refcount */

refcount_set(&req->refcount, 2);
/* cb drops one ref */
p9_client_cb(req)
/* reader thread drops its ref:
request is incorrectly freed */
p9_req_put(req)
/* use after free and ref underflow */
p9_req_put(req)

To fix it, we can initize the refcount to zero before add to idr.

I would s/live/ready for being used/, but comment should be clear enough

Just a note: when applying a patch with git am, this goes into the
commit message -- please include the changelog below the git's three
dashes instead (anything between the three dashes and the 'diff --git'

I blame golfing to fit into three lines, sorry!
Since it was my suggestion, I've taken the liberty to change 'live' to
'ready' as an half step; I think it's clearer than live and probably
understandable enough.

I've pushed this to my next branch and will submit to Linus for the
merge window in a couple of weeks, no point in rushing this to stable
unless it gets snatched through the net tree first...
