4.19-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

From: Tetsuo Handa <penguin-kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit b1ab5fa309e6c49e4e06270ec67dd7b3e9971d04 upstream.

vfs_getattr() needs "struct path" rather than "struct file".
Let's use path_get()/path_put() rather than get_file()/fput().
