Subject: BUG: d_path() races with do_move_mount() on ->mnt_ns, leading to use-after-free
As the subject says, there's a race between d_path() (specifically
__prepend_path()) looking at mnt->mnt_ns with is_anon_ns(), and
do_move_mount() switching out the ->mnt_ns and freeing the old one.
This can theoretically lead to a use-after-free read, but it doesn't
seem to be very interesting from a security perspective, since all it
gets you is a comparison of a value in freed memory with zero.
KASAN splat from a kernel that's been patched to widen the race window:
