"I tried to reproduce this on 3.12.21. Instead, when I do "echo hello > foo"
in an ecryptfs mount with ecryptfs_xattr specified, I get a kernel crash:
BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at (null)

If we create a file when we mount with ecryptfs_xattr_metadata option, we will
encounter a crash in this path:
->ecryptfs_create
->ecryptfs_initialize_file
->ecryptfs_write_metadata
->ecryptfs_write_metadata_to_xattr
->ecryptfs_setxattr
->fsstack_copy_attr_all
It's because our dentry->d_inode used in fsstack_copy_attr_all is NULL, and it
will be initialized when ecryptfs_initialize_file finish.
So we should skip copying attr from lower inode when the value of ->d_inode is
invalid.
