This Oops affects 3.5 kernels and older, and is due to lookup_one_len()
calling down to the dentry revalidation code with a NULL pointer
to struct nameidata.

It is fixed upstream by commit 0b728e1911c (stop passing nameidata *
to ->d_revalidate())

So this is just a nfs-only backport of the larger patch 0b728e1911c,
right?  Should we also do this for other filesystems as well?  Or just
backport the whole commit?

The larger patch involves a VFS api change (the atomic open code) which
has a bunch of pre- and post-requirements. I'd assume that is a too
large change for stable. I think that the smaller per-filesystem changes
are probably more appropriate. The list of filesystems that care are
likely to be small. Off the top of my head, I can only think of NFS,
CIFS, FUSE and possibly ceph.

Cheers
