[PATCH] fs/namespace.c: fix use-after-free of mount in mnt_warn_timestamp_expiry()

From: Eric Biggers
Date: Wed Oct 09 2019 - 03:19:44 EST


From: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@xxxxxxxxxx>

After do_add_mount() returns success, the caller doesn't hold a
reference to the 'struct mount' anymore. So it's invalid to access it
in mnt_warn_timestamp_expiry().

Fix it by instead passing the super_block and the mnt_flags. It's safe
to access the super_block because it's pinned by fs_context::root.
