xfs: sanity check inode mode when creating new dentry commit fab8eef86c814c3dd46bc5d760b6e4a53d5fc5a6 upstream. The helper xfs_dentry_to_name() is used by 2 different classes of callers: Callers that pass zero mode and don't care about the returned name.type field and Callers that pass non zero mode and do care about the name.type field. Change xfs_dentry_to_name() to not take the mode argument and change the call sites of the first class to not pass the mode argument. Create a new helper xfs_dentry_mode_to_name() which does pass the mode argument and returns -EFSCORRUPTED if mode is invalid. Callers that translate non zero mode to on-disk file type now check the return value and will export the error to user instead of staging an invalid file type to be written to directory entry.
