If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Jeff Layton commit 5bccda0ebc7c0331b81ac47d39e4b920b198b2cd upstream. The cifs code will attempt to open files on lookup under certain circumstances. What happens though if we find that the file we opened was actually a FIFO or other special file? Currently, the open filehandle just ends up being leaked leading to a dentry refcount mismatch and oops on umount. Fix this by having the code close the filehandle on the server if it turns out not to be a regular file. While we're at it, change this spaghetti if statement into a switch too.
