[PATCH 4.4 176/183] do_last(): fetch directory ->i_mode and ->i_uid before its too late

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Tue Jan 28 2020 - 09:14:27 EST


From: Al Viro <viro@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit d0cb50185ae942b03c4327be322055d622dc79f6 upstream.

may_create_in_sticky() call is done when we already have dropped the
reference to dir.

Fixes: 30aba6656f61e (namei: allow restricted O_CREAT of FIFOs and regular files)
