+Subject: bsdacct: fix access to invalid filp in acct_on()
+
+From: Renaud Lottiaux <renaud.lottiaux@kerlabs.com>
+
+commit df279ca8966c3de83105428e3391ab17690802a9 upstream.
+
+The file opened in acct_on and freshly stored in the ns->bacct struct can
+be closed in acct_file_reopen by a concurrent call after we release
+acct_lock and before we call mntput(file->f_path.mnt).
+
+Record file->f_path.mnt in a local variable and use this variable only.
