configfs: fix a race in configfs_lookup()
When configfs_lookup() is executing list_for_each_entry(), it is possible that configfs_dir_lseek() is calling list_del(). Some unfortunate interleavings of them can cause a kernel NULL pointer dereference error Thread 1 Thread 2 //configfs_dir_lseek() //configfs_lookup() list_del(&cursor->s_sibling); list_for_each_entry(sd, ...) Fix this by grabbing configfs_dirent_lock in configfs_lookup() while iterating ->s_children. Signed-off-by: NSishuai Gong <sishuai@purdue.edu> Signed-off-by: NChristoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>
