This is the same thread that Yadav discussed with the openafs-release=20
team on 11 Dec 2020.

The suggested change was cherry-picked to openafs-stable-1_8_x as
https://gerrit.openafs.org/14082 and merged as=20
ee578e92d9f810d93659a9805d0c12084fe2bb95.

Martin's e-mail describes the call pattern:

I think Martin meant do_exit().

 > - exit_fs() is called, setting current->fs =3D NULL.

task_struct field struct fs_struct *fs;

 > - Next, exit_task_work() is called,

exit_task_work() calls task_work_run() which flushes any pending works.

 > which calls fput().

which must have been called by a pending work.

 > - In response to the fput(), the filesystem opens a file

disk cache

 >   to update some metadata, calling dentry_open().

dentry_open() in turn will trigger a call to any configured LSM.
If task_struct.fs is NULL, Kaboom!!!
