While reviewing the code of umount_tree I realized that when we append to a preexisting unmounted list we do not change pprev of the former first item in the list. Which means later in namespace_unlock hlist_del_init(&mnt->mnt_hash) on the former first item of the list will stomp unmounted.first leaving it set to some random mount point which we are likely to free soon. This isn't likely to hit, but if it does I don't know how anyone could track it down. [ This happened because we don't have all the same operations for hlist's as we do for normal doubly-linked lists. In particular, list_splice() is easy on our standard doubly-linked lists, while hlist_splice() doesn't exist and needs both start/end entries of the hlist. And commit 38129a13 incorrectly open-coded that missing hlist_splice(). We should think about making these kinds of "mindless" conversions easier to get right by adding the missing hlist helpers - Linus ] Fixes: 38129a13 switch mnt_hash to hlist Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: "Eric W.
