commit90bad5e05bupstream. Since mountpoint crossing can happen without leaving lazy mode, root dentries do need the same protection against having their memory freed without RCU delay as everything else in the tree. It's partially hidden by RCU delay between detaching from the mount tree and dropping the vfsmount reference, but the starting point of pathwalk can be on an already detached mount, in which case umount-caused RCU delay has already passed by the time the lazy pathwalk grabs rcu_read_lock(). If the starting point happens to be at the root of that vfsmount *and* that vfsmount covers the entire filesystem, we get trouble.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
