Commit 1a4ba51a authored by Al Viro's avatar Al Viro Committed by Ben Hutchings

be careful with nd->inode in path_init() and follow_dotdot_rcu()

commit 4023bfc9 upstream.

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.
