patch to fix issue 739
Hello,
I reckon the following patch fixes http://bugs.dragonflybsd.org/issue739.
I couldn't reproduce the issue, so I simply rebuilt the kernel to test
this patch.
When the collision occurs in deget(), the newly created vnode (nvp) is
destroyed.
At this point, nvp->v_data does not yet point to the denode (ldep) and is
presumably NULL, so when nvp->v_data is dereferenced in msdosfs_inactive()
(dep->de_name[0] == SLOT_DELETED), the kernel takes a fault.
The patch simply checks that dep is not NULL before dereferencing it. This
mimics what is done in ufs_inactive() and is documented in
http://www.dragonflybsd.org/cvsweb/src/sys/vfs/ufs/ufs_ihash.c?r1=1.12.
Cheers,
Nicolas
