be careful with nd->inode in path_init() and follow_dotdot_rcu()
in the former we simply check if dentry is still valid after picking its ->d_inode; in the latter we fetch ->d_inode in the same places where we fetch dentry and its ->d_seq, under the same checks. Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # 2.6.38+ Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
