Subject: [patch 4/5] mm: validate inode in mapping_set_error()
Date: Sat, 10 Oct 2020 23:16:37 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20201011061637.E_t0y98Vu%akpm@linux-foundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20201010231559.e148a66f744d0b4870301450@linux-foundation.org>

From: Minchan Kim <minchan@kernel.org>
Subject: mm: validate inode in mapping_set_error()

The swap address_space doesn't have host. Thus, it makes kernel crash once
swap write meets error. Fix it.

Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20201010000650.750063-1-minchan@kernel.org
Fixes: 735e4ae5ba28 ("vfs: track per-sb writeback errors and report them to syncfs")
