3.16.75-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
From: Ronnie Sahlberg lsahlber@redhat.com
commit 487317c99477d00f22370625d53be3239febabbe upstream.
[...]
We have recently found regressions in this patch that are addressed in the following two patches:
cb248819d209d ("cifs: use cifsInodeInfo->open_file_lock while iterating to avoid a panic") 1a67c41596575 ("CIFS: Fix use after free of file info structures")
So, I would suggest either to apply those two patches above or to revert this one.
Thanks for pointing thse out. I will try to include those in a later update.
Ben.
