From 4023bfc9f351a7994fb6a7d515476c320f94a574 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Al Viro Date: Sat, 13 Sep 2014 21:59:43 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] be careful with nd->inode in path_init() and follow_dotdot_rcu() in the former we simply check if dentry is still valid after picking its ->d_inode; in the latter we fetch ->d_inode in the same places where we fetch dentry and its ->d_seq, under the same checks.
