Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: udf: Avoid double brelse() in udf_rename() syzbot reported a warning like below [1]: VFS: brelse: Trying to free free buffer WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 7301 at fs/buffer.c:1145 __brelse+0x67/0xa0 ...

However, brelse() is called by udf_rename(), too. So, b_count on buffer_head becomes unbalanced. This patch fixes the issue by not calling brelse() by udf_rename() when udf_find_entry() returns NULL.
