4.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@xxxxxxxxxx> commit e950564b97fd0f541b02eb207685d0746f5ecf29 upstream. iput() ends up calling ->evict() on new inode, which is not yet initialized by owning fs. So use destroy_inode() instead. Add to sb->s_inodes list only if inode is not in I_CREATING state (meaning that it wasn't allocated with new_inode(), which already does the insertion).
