syzbot reported a null-ptr-deref in pick_link. [1]
When symlink's inode is corrupted, the value of the i_link is 2 in this case,
it will trigger null pointer deref when accessing *res in pick_link(). 

To avoid this issue, add a check for inode mode, return -EINVAL when it's
not symlink.

Hum, based on line number is:

        if (*res == '/') { <<<< HERE
                error = nd_jump_root(nd);
                if (unlikely(error))

So res would be non-zero but a small number.

So I don't see how we can get here without inode being a symlink.
pick_link() is called from step_into() which has among other things:

if (likely(!d_is_symlink(path.dentry)) || ...)
	do something and return

so we are checking whether the inode is a symlink before calling
pick_link(). And yes, the d_is_symlink() is using cached type in
dentry->d_flags so they could mismatch. But inode is not supposed to change
its type during its lifetime so if there is a mismatch that is the problem
that needs to be fixed.

NAK.  Don't paper over filesystem bugs at pathwalk time - it's the wrong
place for that.  Fix it at in-core inode creation time.

BTW, seeing that ntfs doesn't even touch ->i_link, you are dealing
with aftermath of memory corruption, so it's definitely papering over
the actual bug here.
