6.6-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: "Steven Rostedt (Google)" <rostedt@xxxxxxxxxxx> commit f49f950c217bfb40f11662bab39cb388d41e4cfb upstream. Since the locking of the parent->d_inode has been moved outside the creation of the files and directories (as it use to be locked via a conditional), add a WARN_ON_ONCE() to the case that it's not locked.
