From 8e6c0332d5032aef2d3bc8f41771f999112c8c66 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Steve French Date: Tue, 24 Nov 2009 22:17:59 +0000 Subject: [CIFS] fix oops in cifs_lookup during net boot Fixes bugzilla.kernel.org bug number 14641 Lookup called during network boot (network root filesystem for diskless workstation) has case where nd is null in lookup. This patch fixes that in cifs_lookup.
