A NULL pointer dereference may occur in __ceph_remove_cap with some of the callbacks used in ceph_iterate_session_caps, namely trim_caps_cb and remove_session_caps_cb. Those callers hold the session->s_mutex, so they are prevented from concurrent execution, but ceph_evict_inode does not. Since the callers of this function hold the i_ceph_lock, the fix is simply a matter of returning immediately if caps->ci is NULL.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
