[PATCH] fs/ntfs3: dealing with situations where dir_search_u may return null
From: Edward Adam Davis
Date: Sun Jun 02 2024 - 05:57:10 EST
If hdr_find_e() fails to find an entry in the index buffer, dir_search_u() maybe
return NULL.
Therefore, it is necessary to add relevant judgment conditions in ntfs_lookup().
