commit db7a516159869b19f237c73bd75599bbe0bfcc4d

    afs: Fix afs_dynroot_readdir() to not use the RCU read lock
    
    afs_dynroot_readdir() uses the RCU read lock to walk the cell list whilst
    emitting cell automount entries - but dir_emit() may write to a userspace
    buffer, thereby causing a fault to occur and waits to happen.
    
    Fix afs_dynroot_readdir() to get a shared lock on net->cells_lock instead.
    
    Fixes: 1d0b929fc070 ("afs: Change dynroot to create contents on demand")
