From 5ebff5337594d690b322078c512eb222d34aaa82 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Michal Schmidt <mschmidt@redhat.com>

Subject: [PATCH] util: never follow symlinks in rm_rf_children()
The function checks if the entry is a directory before recursing, but
there is a window between the check and the open, during which the
directory could be replaced with a symlink.
