[PATCH 0/3] Fix verifier initialisation races for dentries

[Trond Myklebust <trondmy@kernel.org>]

From: Trond Myklebust <trond.myklebust@hammerspace.com>

Michael Stoler reports seeing an issue in which an uninitialised
verifier on a dentry is causing an incorrect revalidation. This again is
causing him to see a removed file as being still present during an
exclusive create.
The fix should be to ensure that all verifiers are initialised before
calling d_splice_alias().

Trond Myklebust (3):
  NFS: Initialise verifiers for visible dentries in readdir and lookup
  NFS: Initialise verifiers for visible dentries in nfs_atomic_open()
  NFS: Initialise verifiers for visible dentries in
    _nfs4_open_and_get_state
