4.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Liu Bo <bo.liu@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 80c0b4210a963e31529e15bf90519708ec947596 ] 0, 1 and <0 can be returned by btrfs_next_leaf(), and when <0 is returned, path->nodes[0] could be NULL, log_dir_items lacks such a check for <0 and we may run into a null pointer dereference panic.
