6.1-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Christian Göttsche <cgzones@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 70d91dc9b2ac91327d0eefd86163abc3548effa6 upstream. Set the next pointer in filename_trans_read_helper() before attaching the new node under construction to the list, otherwise garbage would be dereferenced on subsequent failure during cleanup in the out goto label.
