vfs: Is mounted should be testing mnt_ns for NULL or error.
A bug was introduced with the is_mounted helper function in commit f7a99c5b7c8bd3d3f533c8b38274e33f3da9096e Author: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Date: Sat Jun 9 00:59:08 2012 -0400 get rid of ->mnt_longterm it's enough to set ->mnt_ns of internal vfsmounts to something distinct from all struct mnt_namespace out there; then we can just use the check for ->mnt_ns != NULL in the fast path of mntput_no_expire() Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> The intent was to test if the real_mount(vfsmount)->mnt_ns was NULL_OR_ERR but the code is actually testing real_mount(vfsmount) and always returning true. The result is d_absolute_path returning paths it should be hiding. Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: "Eric W.
