3.16.7-ckt1 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

commit 4023bfc9f351a7994fb6a7d515476c320f94a574 upstream.

in the former we simply check if dentry is still valid after picking
its ->d_inode; in the latter we fetch ->d_inode in the same places
where we fetch dentry and its ->d_seq, under the same checks.
