Subject: [PATCH] binfmt_misc: Node could be NULL when evicting inode
Date: Tue, 10 Oct 2017 18:06:42 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20171010100642.31786-1-eguan@redhat.com> (raw)

inode->i_private is assigned by a Node pointer only after
registering a new binary format, so it could be NULL if we only
mount binfmt_misc but don't register any format, and this results in
NULL pointer dereference at umount time. e.g.

  mount -t binfmt_misc binfmt_misc /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc
  umount /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc

Fix it by making sure Node (e) is not NULL.
