Christian Schoenebeck 8522051c58 fs/9p: fix NULL pointer dereference on mkdir 
[ Upstream commit 3f61ac7c65 ]

When a 9p tree was mounted with option 'posixacl', parent directory had a
default ACL set for its subdirectories, e.g.:

  setfacl -m default:group:simpsons:rwx parentdir

then creating a subdirectory crashed 9p client, as v9fs_fid_add() call in
function v9fs_vfs_mkdir_dotl() sets the passed 'fid' pointer to NULL
(since dafbe68973) even though the subsequent v9fs_set_create_acl() call
expects a valid non-NULL 'fid' pointer:

  [   37.273191] BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000000

  [   37.342447] entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe (arch/x86/entry/entry_64.S:130)

Fix this by simply swapping the sequence of these two calls in
v9fs_vfs_mkdir_dotl(), i.e. calling v9fs_set_create_acl() before
v9fs_fid_add().

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.
