[20/53] TOMOYO: Fix pathname handling of disconnected paths.

From: Greg KH
Date: Fri Dec 16 2011 - 15:09:06 EST


3.1-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Tetsuo Handa <penguin-kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 1418a3e5ad4d01b1d4abf2c479c50b0cedd59e3f upstream.

Current tomoyo_realpath_from_path() implementation returns strange pathname
when calculating pathname of a file which belongs to lazy unmounted tree.
Use local pathname rather than strange absolute pathname in that case.

Also, this patch fixes a regression by commit 02125a82 "fix apparmor
dereferencing potentially freed dentry, sanitize __d_path() API".
