Subject: Re: [PATCH 1/1] fix d_revalidate oopsen on NFS exports

Hi,

I haven't seen any response to this patch which fixes an Oops in
d_revalidate. I hit this using NFS, but various other file
systems look to be likewise vulnerable, hence the broadness of
the patch. The sequence leading to the Oops is:

lookup_one_len() [fs/namei.c]
   calls __lookup_hash() [fs/namei.c] with nd == NULL,
      which can then call the file system specific d_revalidate(), passing in nd == NULL
         which will then Oops if nd is used without checking

Any suggestions on how to better bring this to the attention of
the relevant people? E.g. be patient, and/or provide separate
patches for each file system, and/or provide a better
explanation of the issue in the patch?

Note: in the patch version provided I missed the d_revalidate for
NFSv4, I'll respin that once I can get an idea of how to better
provide the patches.

Cheers,

Chris.
