Subject: [PATCH] net-sysfs: initialize uid and gid before calling net_ns_get_ownership
Git-commit: f7a1e76d0f608961cc2fc681f867a834f2746bce
Patch-mainline: v5.15
References: stable-5.14.16

commit f7a1e76d0f608961cc2fc681f867a834f2746bce upstream.

Currently in net_ns_get_ownership() it may not be able to set uid or gid
if make_kuid or make_kgid returns an invalid value, and an uninit-value
issue can be triggered by this.

This patch is to fix it by initializing the uid and gid before calling
net_ns_get_ownership(), as it does in kobject_get_ownership()
