From 8238ee93a30a5ff6fc75751e122a28e0d92f3e12 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Al Viro Date: Wed, 2 Sep 2020 11:30:48 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] fix regression in "epoll: Keep a reference on files added to the check list" [ Upstream commit 77f4689de17c0887775bb77896f4cc11a39bf848 ] epoll_loop_check_proc() can run into a file already committed to destruction; we can't grab a reference on those and don't need to add them to the set for reverse path check anyway.
