Subject: [PATCH] ecryptfs (repost): release reference to lower mount if
	interpose fails


In ecryptfs_lookup_and_interpose_lower() the lower mount is not decremented
if allocation of a dentry info struct failed. As a result the lower filesystem
cant be unmounted any more (since it is considered busy). This patch corrects
the reference counting.

This patch is against 2.6.35-rc5.
