From 46c23d7f520e315dde86881b38ba92ebdf34ced5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Lubomir Rintel Date: Tue, 29 Jun 2010 15:05:38 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] sysvfs: fix NULL deref. when allocating new inode A call to sysv_write_inode() in sysv_new_inode() to its new interface that replaced wait flag with writeback structure. This was broken by a9185b41a4f84971b930c519f0c63bd450c4810d ("pass writeback_control to ->write_inode").
