Subject: [GIT PULL for-4.4 20/25] ceph: clean up unsafe d_parent accesses in
 build_dentry_path

From: Jeff Layton <jlayton@...hat.com>

[ Upstream commit c6b0b656ca24ede6657abb4a2cd910fa9c1879ba ]

While we hold a reference to the dentry when build_dentry_path is
called, we could end up racing with a rename that changes d_parent.
Handle that situation correctly, by using the rcu_read_lock to
ensure that the parent dentry and inode stick around long enough
to safely check ceph_snap and ceph_ino.
