Subject: [PATCH 2/2] GFS2: Fix ref count bug relating to atomic_open
Date: Fri, 22 Nov 2013 10:35:35 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1385116535-4564-3-git-send-email-swhiteho@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1385116535-4564-1-git-send-email-swhiteho@redhat.com>
In the case that atomic_open calls finish_no_open() with
the dentry that was supplied to gfs2_atomic_open() an
extra reference count is required. This patch fixes that
issue preventing a bug trap triggering at umount time.
