syzbot found that touch /proc/testfile causes NULL pointer dereference at tomoyo_get_local_path() because inode of the dentry is NULL. Beforec59f415a7c, Tomoyo received pid_ns from proc's s_fs_info directly. Since proc_pid_ns() can only work with inode, using it in the tomoyo_get_local_path() was wrong. To avoid creating more functions for getting proc_ns, change the argument type of the proc_pid_ns() function. Then, Tomoyo can use the existing super_block to get pid_ns.

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.
