The quilt patch titled Subject: nilfs2: protect references to superblock parameters exposed in sysfs has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was nilfs2-protect-references-to-superblock-parameters-exposed-in-sysfs.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-hotfixes-stable branch of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

------------------------------------------------------ From: Ryusuke Konishi konishi.ryusuke@gmail.com Subject: nilfs2: protect references to superblock parameters exposed in sysfs Date: Sun, 11 Aug 2024 19:03:20 +0900

The superblock buffers of nilfs2 can not only be overwritten at runtime for modifications/repairs, but they are also regularly swapped, replaced during resizing, and even abandoned when degrading to one side due to backing device issues. So, accessing them requires mutual exclusion using the reader/writer semaphore "nilfs->ns_sem".

Some sysfs attribute show methods read this superblock buffer without the necessary mutual exclusion, which can cause problems with pointer dereferencing and memory access, so fix it.
