Subject: [009/197] xfs: simplify inode teardown

2.6.32-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

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


From: Christoph Hellwig <hch@...radead.org>

commit 848ce8f731aed0a2d4ab5884a4f6664af73d2dd0 upstream

Currently the reclaim code for the case where we don't reclaim the
final reclaim is overly complicated.  We know that the inode is clean
but instead of just directly reclaiming the clean inode we go through
the whole process of marking the inode reclaimable just to directly
reclaim it from the calling context.  Besides being overly complicated
this introduces a race where iget could recycle an inode between
marked reclaimable and actually being reclaimed leading to panics.

This patch gets rid of the existing reclaim path, and replaces it with
a simple call to xfs_ireclaim if the inode was clean.  While we're at
it we also use the slightly more lax xfs_inode_clean check we'd use
later to determine if we need to flush the inode here.

Finally get rid of xfs_reclaim function and place the remaining small
bits of reclaim code directly into xfs_fs_destroy_inode.
