[RFC PATCH 02/62] apparmorfs: fix use-after-free on symlink traversal

From: Al Viro
Date: Tue Apr 16 2019 - 14:00:24 EST


From: Al Viro <viro@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

symlink body shouldn't be freed without an RCU delay. Switch apparmorfs
to ->destroy_inode() and use of call_rcu(); free both the inode and symlink
body in the callback.
