Subject: btrfs: ensure that file descriptor used with subvol ioctls is a dir
From: Jeff Mahoney <jeffm@xxxxxxxx>
commit 325c50e3cebb9208009083e841550f98a863bfa0 upstream.
If the subvol/snapshot create/destroy ioctls are passed a regular file
with execute permissions set, we'll eventually Oops while trying to do
inode->i_op->lookup via lookup_one_len.
This patch ensures that the file descriptor refers to a directory.
Fixes: cb8e70901d (Btrfs: Fix subvolume creation locking rules)
Fixes: 76dda93c6a (Btrfs: add snapshot/subvolume destroy ioctl)
