Pull vfs fixes from Christian Brauner:
"This contains two minor fixes for Jan's rename locking work:
- Unlocking the source inode was guarded by a check whether source
was non-NULL. This doesn't make sense because source must be
non-NULL and the commit message explains in detail why
- The lock_two_nondirectories() helper called WARN_ON_ONCE() and
dereferenced the inodes unconditionally but the underlying
lock_two_inodes() helper and the kernel documentation for that
function are clear that it is valid to pass NULL arguments, so a
non-NULL check is needed. No callers currently pass NULL arguments
but let's not knowingly leave landmines around"
* tag 'v6.5/vfs.fixes.2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs:
fs: don't assume arguments are non-NULL
fs: no need to check source
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
