Subject: [PATCH] fs: Fix filename init after recent refactoring
Date: Wed,  9 Apr 2025 15:05:34 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250409220534.3635801-1-song@kernel.org> (raw)

getname_flags() should save __user pointer "filename" in filename->uptr.
However, this logic is broken by a recent refactoring. Fix it by passing
__user pointer filename to helper initname().

Fixes: 611851010c74 ("fs: dedup handling of struct filename init and refcounts bumps")
