6.6-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Vasiliy Kovalev <kovalev@xxxxxxxxxxxx> commit c8b359dddb418c60df1a69beea01d1b3322bfe83 upstream. Add a check to the ovl_dentry_weird() function to prevent the processing of directory inodes that lack the lookup function. This is important because such inodes can cause errors in overlayfs when passed to the lowerstack.
