Subject: cifs: check for private_data before trying to put it
X-Git-Url: http://git.cdn.openwrt.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=7797069305d13252fd66cf722aa8f2cbeb3c95cd;p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2Fblogic.git

cifs: check for private_data before trying to put it

cifs_close doesn't check that the filp->private_data is non-NULL before
trying to put it. That can cause an oops in certain error conditions
that can occur on open or lookup before the private_data is set.
