Subject: [PATCH 4.19 0/2] Backport readdir sanity checking patches

Hello,

This patchset is a backport of upstream commits that makes getdents() and
getdents64() do sanity checking on the pathname that it gives to user
space.

Linus Torvalds (2):
  Make filldir[64]() verify the directory entry filename is valid
  filldir[64]: remove WARN_ON_ONCE() for bad directory entries
