It was found in [1] that bpf_inode_storage_get helper did not check the nullness of the passed owner ptr which caused an oops when dereferenced. This change incorporates the example suggested in [1] into the local storage selftest. The test is updated to create a temporary directory instead of just using a tempfile. In order to replicate the issue this copied rm binary is renamed tiggering the inode_rename with a null pointer for the new_inode. The logic to verify the setting and deletion of the inode local storage of the old inode is also moved to this LSM hook. The change also removes the copy_rm function and simply shells out to copy files and recursively delete directories and consolidates the logic of setting the initial inode storage to the bprm_committed_creds hook and removes the file_open hook.

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.
