Subject: [PATCH 4.4 17/20] ext4 crypto: use dget_parent() in ext4_d_revalidate()
Date: Fri,  5 May 2017 11:33:07 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170505183231.608205479@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20170505183230.937615081@linuxfoundation.org>

4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>

commit 3d43bcfef5f0548845a425365011c499875491b0 upstream.

This avoids potential problems caused by a race where the inode gets
renamed out from its parent directory and the parent directory is
deleted while ext4_d_revalidate() is running.

Fixes: 28b4c263961c
