Ethan Tidmore 5a34959a2a xfs: Fix error pointer dereference
commit cddfa648f1 upstream.

The function try_lookup_noperm() can return an error pointer and is not
checked for one.

Add checks for error pointer in xrep_adoption_check_dcache() and
xrep_adoption_zap_dcache().

Detected by Smatch:
fs/xfs/scrub/orphanage.c:449 xrep_adoption_check_dcache() error:
'd_child' dereferencing possible ERR_PTR()

fs/xfs/scrub/orphanage.c:485 xrep_adoption_zap_dcache() error:
'd_child' dereferencing possible ERR_PTR()

Fixes: 73597e3e42 ("xfs: ensure dentry consistency when the orphanage adopts a file")

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.
