Zheng Qixing 5d95fbbfaa nvme: fix inconsistent RCU list manipulation in nvme_ns_add_to_ctrl_list()
[ Upstream commit 80d7762e0a42307ee31b21f090e21349b98c14f6 ]

When inserting a namespace into the controller's namespace list, the
function uses list_add_rcu() when the namespace is inserted in the middle
of the list, but falls back to a regular list_add() when adding at the
head of the list.

This inconsistency could lead to race conditions during concurrent
access, as users might observe a partially updated list. Fix this by
consistently using list_add_rcu() in both code paths to ensure proper
RCU protection throughout the entire function.

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 Restructured Text 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.
