From 27f203f655a2e1dab66598a5b19afb637c587f0b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Al Viro Date: Wed, 9 Mar 2016 17:58:49 -0500 Subject: untangle fsnotify_d_instantiate() a bit First of all, don't bother calling it if inode is NULL - that makes inode argument unused. Moreover, do it *before* dropping ->d_lock, not right after that (and don't bother grabbing ->d_lock in it, of course).
