When calling fdget() in xfs_ioc_swapext(), we need to verify that the file descriptors passed into the ioctl point to XFS inodes before we start operations on them. If we don't do this, we could be referencing arbitrary kernel memory as an XFS inode. THis could lead to memory corruption and/or performing locking operations on attacker-chosen structures in kernel memory.
