Subject: Re: KASAN: use-after-free in move_expired_inodes

Hi Al, etc,

I was unable to find a reproducer but I was looking at
move_expired_inodes (fs/fs-writeback.c 1093.c) and how do you ensure
that the inode can't be freed after retrieving it from the work queue?
Any insights would be appreciated.

Regards,
Shankara
