[PATCH 0/9] [RFC v2] safely drop directory dentry on failed revalidate

From: Miklos Szeredi
Date: Thu Aug 08 2013 - 11:25:05 EST


Here's a series for fixing issues with d_drop on a directory dentry with
children and adding support for such dropped directories in fuse.

This one fixes a couple of issues I found with the previous incarnation and
split out the filesystem parts into individual patches.

Thanks,
Miklos
