Hi,

Currently the error path of function gfs2_inode_lookup calls function
gfs2_glock_put corresponding to an earlier call to gfs2_glock_get for
the inode glock. That's wrong because the error path also calls
iget_failed() which eventually calls iput, which eventually calls
gfs2_evict_inode, which does another gfs2_glock_put. This double-put
can cause the glock reference count to get off.

Regards,
