3.16.55-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Thiago Rafael Becker <thiago.bec...@gmail.com> commit bdcf0a423ea1c40bbb40e7ee483b50fc8aa3d758 upstream. In testing, we found that nfsd threads may call set_groups in parallel for the same entry cached in auth.unix.gid, racing in the call of groups_sort, corrupting the groups for that entry and leading to permission denials for the client. This patch: - Make groups_sort globally visible. - Move the call to groups_sort to the modifiers of group_info - Remove the call to groups_sort from set_groups Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20171211151420.18655-1-thiago.bec...@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Thiago Rafael Becker <thiago.bec...@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: Matthew Wilcox <mawil...@microsoft.com> Reviewed-by: NeilBrown <ne...@suse.com> Acked-by: "J.
