xfs: Fix error pointer dereference
The function try_lookup_noperm() can return an error pointer and is not checked for one. Add checks for error pointer in xrep_adoption_check_dcache() and xrep_adoption_zap_dcache(). Detected by Smatch: fs/xfs/scrub/orphanage.c:449 xrep_adoption_check_dcache() error: 'd_child' dereferencing possible ERR_PTR() fs/xfs/scrub/orphanage.c:485 xrep_adoption_zap_dcache() error: 'd_child' dereferencing possible ERR_PTR() Fixes: 73597e3e42b4 ("xfs: ensure dentry consistency when the orphanage adopts a file") Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # v6.16 Signed-off-by: Ethan Tidmore <ethantidmore06@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: Darrick J.
