Steven Rostedt (Google) 2ec4d502c2 tracefs: Add missing lockdown check to tracefs_create_dir()
commit 51aab5ffce 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.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
