2.6.29-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know. ------------------ From: Trond Myklebust commit b1e4adf4ea41bb8b5a7bfc1a7001f137e65495df upstream. NFS appears to be returning an unnecessary "delete" notification when we're doing an atomic rename. See http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=575684 The fix is to get rid of the redundant call to d_delete().
