[PATCH 4.20 093/111] block/loop: Dont grab "struct file" for vfs_getattr() operation.

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Jan 21 2019 - 09:16:05 EST


4.20-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

From: Tetsuo Handa <penguin-kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit b1ab5fa309e6c49e4e06270ec67dd7b3e9971d04 upstream.

vfs_getattr() needs "struct path" rather than "struct file".
Let's use path_get()/path_put() rather than get_file()/fput().
