Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: tracepoints: get correct superblock from dentry in event btrfs_sync_file()
If overlay is used on top of btrfs, dentry->d_sb translates to overlay's
super block and fsid assignment will lead to a crash.
Use file_inode(file)->i_sb to always get btrfs_sb.
