syzbot reported a null-ptr-deref in pick_link. [1]
First, i_link and i_dir_seq are in the same union, they share the same memory
address, and i_dir_seq will be updated during the execution of walk_component,
which makes the value of i_link equal to i_dir_seq.
In this case, setting i_dir_seq is triggered by move_mount, and the calltrace
is as follows:
move_mount()->
user_path_at()->
filename_lookup()->
path_lookupat()->
lookup_last()->
walk_component()->
__lookup_slow()->
ntfs_lookup()->
d_splice_alias()->
__d_add()->
end_dir_add()
In pick_link(), the simple "if (!i_link)" is used to determine whether i_link
has been set, which is not rigorous enough.
On the other hand, the mode value of the symlink inode becomes REG because
attr_set_size() fails to set the attribute and calls ntfs_bad_inode().
By confirming that the i_link pointer value is valid, the null-ptr-deref
problem in pick_link can be avoided.
