[patch added to 3.12-stable] fix d_walk()/non-delayed __d_free() race

[Jiri Slaby <jslaby@suse.cz>]

From: Willy Tarreau <w@1wt.eu>

This patch has been added to the 3.12 stable tree. If you have any
objections, please let us know.

===============

I checked Jari's explanation below and found that v3.14.77 and v3.12.62
are missing the same fix as 3.10. In fact Al's original commit 3d56c25
("fix d_walk()/non-delayed __d_free() race") used to mention to check
this __d_materialise_dentry() function in the Cc: stable line, but this
got lost during the backports.

Normally all of our 3 kernels need to apply the following patch that
Ben correctly put in 3.16 and 3.2. I'm fixing the backport in 3.10.103
right now.
