Subject: [PATCH 001 of 2] knfsd: Have ext2 reject file handles with bad inode numbers early.
Date: Fri, 28 Jul 2006 10:31:25 +1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1060728003125.15210@suse.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20060728102713.15132.patches@notabene


This prevents bad inode numbers from triggering errors in
ext2_get_inode.
