Subject: be careful with nd->inode in path_init() and follow_dotdot_rcu()
X-Git-Tag: v3.17-rc5~1^2
X-Git-Url: http://git.cascardo.eti.br/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=4023bfc9f351a7994fb6a7d515476c320f94a574;p=cascardo%2Flinux.git

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.
