From ce47fe53f78bbf309b8bbb0c74704c043fe093ef Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Steven Rostedt (Google)" Date: Tue, 5 Sep 2023 14:26:08 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] tracefs: Add missing lockdown check to tracefs_create_dir() commit 51aab5ffceb43e05119eb059048fd75765d2bc21 upstream. The function tracefs_create_dir() was missing a lockdown check and was called by the RV code. This gave an inconsistent behavior of this function returning success while other tracefs functions failed. This caused the inode being freed by the wrong kmem_cache.
