2.6.27-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know. ------------------ From: "Theodore Ts'o" (cherry picked from commit 3c37fc86d20fe35be656f070997d62f75c2e4874) Fix a regression caused by commit d0156417, "ext4: fix ext4_dx_readdir hash collision handling", where deleting files in a large directory (requiring more than one getdents system call), results in some filenames being returned twice. This was caused by a failure to update info->curr_hash and info->curr_minor_hash, so that if the directory had gotten modified since the last getdents() system call (as would be the case if the user is running "rm -r" or "git clean"), a directory entry would get returned twice to the userspace.
