Subject: [PATCH] ext4: ext4_mkdir should dirty dir_block with the parent inode
Date: Tue, 16 Aug 2011 20:39:54 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110817033954.GP20655@tux1.beaverton.ibm.com> (raw)

ext4_mkdir calls ext4_handle_dirty_metadata with dir_block and the inode "dir".
Unfortunately, dir_block belongs to the newly created directory (which is
"inode"), not the parent directory (which is "dir").  Fix the incorrect
association.
