Based on what I see here I can understand that this prevents the panic,
but it isn't so clear what changed that introduced the problem.

Apparently, it's this patch:

db1d1e8b9867 IMA: use vfs_getattr_nosec to get the i_version

At one time, IMA would reach directly into the inode to get the
i_version and ctime. That was fine for certain filesystems, but with
more recent changes it needs to go through ->getattr instead. Evidently,
it's selecting the wrong inode to query when dealing with overlayfs and
that's causing panics at times.

As to why the above patch helps, I'm not sure, but given that it doesn't
seem to change which inode is being queried via getattr, it seems like
this is probably papering over the real bug. That said, IMA and
overlayfs are not really in my wheelhouse, so I could be very wrong
here.

Yes, the syzbot was updated with that info.

The call to vfs_getattr_nosec() somehow triggers a call to
security_inode_getattr(). Without the call neither ovl_getattr() nor
smack_inode_getattr() would be called.

This is a partial story - one which I told and tried to solve with my patch.
It is true in some cases, but it wasn't the case in this reproducer.

Overlayfs keeps *two* files open, one for the ovl inode and one for
the 'real' inode in underlying fs.

IMA hooks can happen on either of these files.
fput of the ovl file will trigger fput of the real file.
My patch fixes IMA code that triggers on the real file,
which must use file_real_path() to get the path.
My patch really fixes a bug that was also introduced by your
patch, but it is not the bug that syzbot reported.

The syzbot reproducer is triggered on fput of the ovl file.
This is why my patch did not fix it.

IMO, the solution is one of the two solutions that Christian proposed -
you had also proposed to propage the nosec context yourself
before I suggested my fix. I never said that it was wrong - just didn't
think it was the root cause for this regression, because there was
another bug under the lamppost.
