Re: [PATCH] isofs: fix inode leak caused by disconnected dentries from exportfs

Hi Jan,

Thank you for the review.

You're right - I need to investigate further why these dentries survive until unmount if dput() should destroy DCACHE_DISCONNECTED dentries immediately.
I'll add more detailed tracing to understand the actual reference counting and dentry state throughout the lifecycle.
I may have misdiagnosed the root cause even though the fix addresses the symptom

Best Regards
