Subject: [PATCH 3.2 14/27] deal with deadlock in d_walk()
3.2.66-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Al Viro <viro@...iv.linux.org.uk>
commit ca5358ef75fc69fee5322a38a340f5739d997c10 upstream.
... by not hitting rename_retry for reasons other than rename having
happened. In other words, do _not_ restart when finding that
between unlocking the child and locking the parent the former got
into __dentry_kill(). Skip the killed siblings instead...
Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@...iv.linux.org.uk>
[bwh: Backported to 3.2:
- As we only have try_to_ascend() and not d_walk(), apply this
change to all callers of try_to_ascend()
- Adjust context to make __dentry_kill() apply to d_kill()]
