Subject: [PATCH] Fix NULL ->nsproxy dereference in /proc/*/mounts
Date: Mon, 15 Jan 2007 19:45:06 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070115164506.GA6031@localhost.sw.ru> (raw)

/proc/*/mounstats was fixed, all right, but...

To reproduce:

	while true; do
		find /proc -type f 2>/dev/null | xargs cat 1>/dev/null 2>/dev/null;
	done
