Theodore Ts'o fdad4e17dc ext4: check to make sure the rename(2)'s destination is not freed
commit b50282f324 upstream.

If the destination of the rename(2) system call exists, the inode's
link count (i_nlinks) must be non-zero.  If it is, the inode can end
up on the orphan list prematurely, leading to all sorts of hilarity,
including a use-after-free.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
