Subject: [PATCH 4.19 09/77] proc: change ->nlink under proc_subdir_lock

From: Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@...il.com>

[ Upstream commit e06689bf57017ac022ccf0f2a5071f760821ce0f ]

Currently gluing PDE into global /proc tree is done under lock, but
changing ->nlink is not.  Additionally struct proc_dir_entry::nlink is
not atomic so updates can be lost.
