Yes, sorry, my fault. Fixed by the patch from Eryu, already in -mm tree.

binfmt_misc: Node could be NULL when evicting inode

inode->i_private is assigned by a Node pointer only after
registering a new binary format, and it's possible to be NULL if
inode was created by bm_fill_super() (or iput() was called by the
error path in bm_register_write()), and this could result in NULL
pointer dereference when evicting such an inode. e.g. mount
binfmt_misc filesystem then umount it immediately:

  mount -t binfmt_misc binfmt_misc /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc
  umount /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc

Fix it by making sure Node (e) is not NULL.

v2:
- update commit log as suggested by Oleg

Hi Andrew, could you please help replace the v1 patch in -mm tree with
this v2? The new commit log describes the problem more accurately.
Thanks!
