The audit code relies on the fact that kern_path_locked() returned a path even for a negative dentry. If it doesn't find a valid dentry it immediately calls: audit_find_parent(d_backing_inode(parent_path.dentry)); which assumes that parent_path.dentry is still valid. But it isn't since kern_path_locked() has been changed to path_put() also for a negative dentry. Fix this by adding a helper that implements the required audit semantics and allows us to fix the immediate bleeding. We can find a unified solution for this afterwards.
