Subject: proc: fix missing pde_set_flags() for net proc files
Date: Thu, 21 Aug 2025 18:58:06 +0800
Origin: https://lore.kernel.org/stable/20250821105806.1453833-1-wangzijie1@honor.com/

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().

[1]: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250815195616.64497967@chagall.paradoxon.rec/

Fixes: ff7ec8dc1b64 ("proc: use the same treatment to check proc_lseek as ones for proc_read_iter et.al")
