Alex Markuze bec324f33d ceph: fix race condition where r_parent becomes stale before sending message
When the parent directory's i_rwsem is not locked, req->r_parent may become
stale due to concurrent operations (e.g. rename) between dentry lookup and
message creation. Validate that r_parent matches the encoded parent inode
and update to the correct inode if a mismatch is detected.

[ idryomov: folded a follow-up fix from Alex to drop extra reference
  from ceph_get_reply_dir() in ceph_fill_trace():

  ceph_get_reply_dir() may return a different, referenced inode when
  r_parent is stale and the parent directory lock is not held.
  ceph_fill_trace() used that inode but failed to drop the reference
  when it differed from req->r_parent, leaking an inode reference.

  Keep the directory inode in a local variable and iput() it at
  function end if it does not match req->r_parent. ]

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.
