6.6-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Steven Rostedt (Google) rostedt@goodmis.org
The top level events directory dentry does not have a d_fsdata set to a eventfs_file pointer. This dentry is still passed to eventfs_set_attr(). It can not assume that the d_fsdata is set. Check for that.
