Subject: [PATCH 13/23] drbd: debugfs: deal with destructor racing with open of debugfs file
From: Lars Ellenberg <lars.ellenberg@...bit.com>
Try to close the race between open() and debugfs_remove_recursive()
from inside an object destructor.
Once open succeeds, the object should stay around.
Open should not succeed if the object has already reached its destructor.
This may be overkill, but to make that happen, we check for existence of
a parent directory, "stale-ness" of "this" dentry, and serialize
kref_get_unless_zero() on the outermost object relevant for this file
with d_delete() on this dentry (using the parent's i_mutex).
