Merge tag 'ovl-fixes-6.6-rc5' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/overlayfs/vfs

Pull overlayfs fixes from Amir Goldstein:

 - Fix for file reference leak regression

 - Fix for NULL pointer deref regression

 - Fixes for RCU-walk race regressions:

   Two of the fixes were taken from Al's RCU pathwalk race fixes series
   with his consent [1].

   Note that unlike most of Al's series, these two patches are not about
   racing with ->kill_sb() and they are also very recent regressions
   from v6.5, so I think it's worth getting them into v6.5.y.

   There is also a fix for an RCU pathwalk race with ->kill_sb(), which
   may have been solved in vfs generic code as you suggested, but it
   also rids overlayfs from a nasty hack, so I think it's worth anyway.

README

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.
