As Miklos reported and suggested:
This pattern repeats two times in trace_uprobe.c and in
kernel/events/core.c as well:
ret = kern_path(filename, LOOKUP_FOLLOW, &path);
if (ret)
goto fail_address_parse;
inode = igrab(d_inode(path.dentry));
path_put(&path);
And it's wrong. You can only hold a reference to the inode if you
have an active ref to the superblock as well (which is normally
through path.mnt) or holding s_umount.
This way unmounting the containing filesystem while the tracepoint is
active will give you the "VFS: Busy inodes after unmount..." message
and a crash when the inode is finally put.
Solution: store path instead of inode.
This patch fixes two instances in trace_uprobe.c.
Fixes: f3f096cfedf8 ("tracing: Provide trace events interface for uprobes")
Fixes: 33ea4b24277b ("perf/core: Implement the 'perf_uprobe' PMU")
