[PATCH] nfsd: fix NULL dereference in nfsd_statfs()

From: Takashi Iwai
Date: Fri Aug 13 2010 - 09:53:55 EST


The commit ebabe9a9001af0af56c0c2780ca1576246e7a74b
pass a struct path to vfs_statfs
introduced the struct path initialization, and this seems to trigger
an Oops on my machine.

fh_dentry field may be NULL and set later in fh_verify(), thus the
initialization of path must be after fh_verify().
