commit169b803397upstream. the victim might've been rmdir'ed just before the lock_rename(); unlike the normal callers, we do not look the source up after the parents are locked - we know it beforehand and just recheck that it's still the child of what used to be its parent. Unfortunately, the check is too weak - we don't spot a dead directory since its ->d_parent is unchanged, dentry is positive, etc. So we sail all the way to ->rename(), with hosting filesystems _not_ expecting to be asked renaming an rmdir'ed subdirectory. The fix is easy, fortunately - the lock on parent is sufficient for making IS_DEADDIR() on child safe.

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.
