This patchset contains vfs changes that are needed to fix racy issue in ksmbd. Added the 1/3 patch by Al's additional review comment. v7: - constify struct path. - recreate patch-set base on recent Al's patches. v6: - rename __lookup_hash() to lookup_one_qstr_excl and export. - change dget() to dget_parent() in unlink. - lock parent of open file in smb2_open() to make file_present worthable. v5: - add lock_rename_child() helper. - remove d_is_symlink() check for new_path.dentry. - use lock_rename_child() helper instead of lock_rename(). - use dget() instead of dget_parent(). - check that old_child is still hashed. - directly check child->parent instead of using take_dentry_name_snapshot(). v4: - switch the order of 3/4 and 4/4 patch. - fix vfs_path_parent_lookup() parameter description mismatch. v3: - use dget_parent + take_dentry_name_snapshot() to check stability of source rename in smb2_vfs_rename(). v2: - add filename_lock to avoid racy issue from fp->filename.
