Commit fd2421f54423 ("fs/9p: When doing inode lookup compare qid details and inode mode bits.") transformed v9fs_qid_iget() to use iget5_locked() instead of iget_locked(). However, the test() callback is not checking fid.path at all, which means that a lookup in the inode cache can now accidentally locate a completely wrong inode from the same inode hash bucket if the other fields (qid.type and qid.version) match. Fixes: fd2421f54423 ("fs/9p: When doing inode lookup compare qid details and inode mode bits.")
