Roberto Bergantinos Corpas 203c792cb4 nfs: return EISDIR on nfs3_proc_create if d_alias is a dir 
[ Upstream commit 410666a298 ]

If we found an alias through nfs3_do_create/nfs_add_or_obtain
/d_splice_alias which happens to be a dir dentry, we don't return
any error, and simply forget about this alias, but the original
dentry we were adding and passed as parameter remains negative.

This later causes an oops on nfs_atomic_open_v23/finish_open since we
supply a negative dentry to do_dentry_open.

This has been observed running lustre-racer, where dirs and files are
created/removed concurrently with the same name and O_EXCL is not
used to open files (frequent file redirection).

While d_splice_alias typically returns a directory alias or NULL, we
explicitly check d_is_dir() to ensure that we don't attempt to perform
file operations (like finish_open) on a directory inode, which triggers
the observed oops.

Fixes: 7c6c5249f0 ("NFS: add atomic_open for NFSv3 to handle O_TRUNC correctly.")

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
