eCryptfs: Prevent file create race condition
The file creation path prematurely called d_instantiate() and unlock_new_inode() before the eCryptfs inode info was fully allocated and initialized and before the eCryptfs metadata was written to the lower file. This could result in race conditions in subsequent file and inode operations leading to unexpected error conditions or a null pointer dereference while attempting to use the unallocated memory. https://launchpad.net/bugs/813146 Signed-off-by: Tyler Hicks <tyhicks@canonical.com> Cc: stable@kernel.org
