ocfs2: fix potential use after free
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
ocfs2_get_dentry() calls iput(inode) to drop the reference count of
inode, and if the reference count hits 0, inode is freed.  However, in
this function, it then reads inode->i_generation, which may result in a
use after free bug.  Move the put operation later.
