Isn't structure initialization supposed to zero everything not
explicitly initialized?

Indeed, file_dentry() only makes sense when called from a layer inside
overlayfs.

The one in io_uring() seems wrong also, as a beast needing
file_dentry() should never get out of overlayfs and into io_uring:

--- a/fs/io_uring.c
+++ b/fs/io_uring.c
@@ -9297,7 +9297,7 @@ static void __io_uring_show_fdinfo(struct
io_ring_ctx *ctx, struct seq_file *m)
                struct file *f = *io_fixed_file_slot(ctx->file_data, i);

                if (f)
-                       seq_printf(m, "%5u: %s\n", i, file_dentry(f)->d_iname);
+                       seq_printf(m, "%5u: %pD\n", i, f);
                else
                        seq_printf(m, "%5u: <none>\n", i);
        }


Thanks,
