kernel BUG at fs/dcache.c:1363 (from cgroup)

From: Li Zefan

Just mount the cgroupfs:

# mount -t cgroup -o cpuset xxx /mnt
(oops!!)

The bug is caused by:

=========
commit 0df6a63f8735a7c8a877878bc215d4312e41ef81
Author: Al Viro <viro@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

switch cgroup

switching it to s_d_op allows to kill the cgroup_lookup() kludge.

=========

This line:

+ sb->s_d_op = &cgroup_dops;

will cause the dentry op be set twice, and thus trigger the bomb:

struct dentry *d_alloc(struct dentry * parent, const struct qstr *name)
{
...
if (parent) {
...
d_set_d_op(dentry, dentry->d_sb->s_d_op);
...
}
...
}

static struct dentry *d_alloc_and_lookup(struct dentry *parent,
struct qstr *name, struct nameidata *nd)
{
...
dentry = d_alloc(parent, name);
...
old = inode->i_op->lookup(inode, dentry, nd);
...
}

simple_lookup() will call d_set_d_op()...
