    inotify: Avoid reporting event with invalid wd · c915d8f5
    Jan Kara authored
    When inotify_freeing_mark() races with inotify_handle_inode_event() it
    can happen that inotify_handle_inode_event() sees that i_mark->wd got
    already reset to -1 and reports this value to userspace which can
    confuse the inotify listener. Avoid the problem by validating that wd is
    sensible (and pretend the mark got removed before the event got
    generated otherwise).
