Daniel Vogelbacher 8c9af7339d ceph: fix oops due to invalid pointer for kfree() in parse_longname() 
commit bc8dedae02 upstream.

This fixes a kernel oops when reading ceph snapshot directories (.snap),
for example by simply running `ls /mnt/my_ceph/.snap`.

The variable str is guarded by __free(kfree), but advanced by one for
skipping the initial '_' in snapshot names. Thus, kfree() is called
with an invalid pointer.  This patch removes the need for advancing the
pointer so kfree() is called with correct memory pointer.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Create snapshots on a cephfs volume (I've 63 snaps in my testcase)

2. Add cephfs mount to fstab
$ echo "samba-fileserver@.files=/volumes/datapool/stuff/3461082b-ecc9-4e82-8549-3fd2590d3fb6      /mnt/test/stuff   ceph     acl,noatime,_netdev    0       0" >> /etc/fstab

3. Reboot the system
$ systemctl reboot

4. Check if it's really mounted
$ mount | grep stuff

5. List snapshots (expected 63 snapshots on my system)
$ ls /mnt/test/stuff/.snap

Now ls hangs forever and the kernel log shows the oops.

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.
