exportfs: do not read dentry after free The function dentry_connected calls dput(dentry) to drop the previously acquired reference to dentry. In this case, dentry can be released. After that, IS_ROOT(dentry) checks the condition (dentry == dentry->d_parent), which may result in a use-after-free bug. This patch directly compares dentry with its parent obtained before dropping the reference.
