Subject: [PATCH 3.16 287/366] udf: avoid unneeded up_write when fail to
 add entry in ->symlink

3.16.60-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Chao Yu <chao2.yu@...sung.com>

commit 85cd083b498572fb9fa575cce3ed910c8ee84294 upstream.

We have released the ->i_data_sem before invoking udf_add_entry(),
so in following error path, we should not release this lock again.
