Subject: [102/165] ext4: Fix the NULL reference in double_down_write_data_sem()
Date: Fri, 30 Jul 2010 10:15:30 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100730171508.848265188@clark.site> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20100730171550.GA1299@kroah.com

2.6.32-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

commit 7247c0caa23d94a1cb6b307edba9dc45fb0798d4 upstream (as of v2.6.33-git11)

If EXT4_IOC_MOVE_EXT ioctl is called with NULL donor_fd, fget() in
ext4_ioctl() gets inappropriate file structure for donor; so we need
to do this check earlier, before calling double_down_write_data_sem().
