Al Viro e5a3449ce1 hostfs: fix memory handling in follow_link()
[ Upstream commit 7f6c411c9b ]

1) argument should not be freed in any case - the caller already has
it as ->s_fs_info (and uses it a lot afterwards)
2) allocate readlink buffer with kmalloc() - the caller has no way
to tell if it's got that (on absolute symlink) or a result of
kasprintf().  Sure, for SLAB and SLUB kfree() works on results of
kmem_cache_alloc(), but that's not documented anywhere, might change
in the future *and* is already not true for SLOB.

Fixes: 52b209f7b8 ("get rid of hostfs_read_inode()")

README

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.
