[PATCH 02/12] staging: lustre: llite: fix incorrect DCACHE_DISCONNECTED test
From: NeilBrown
Date: Tue Jul 18 2017 - 19:27:31 EST
It is almost always wrong to test DCACHE_DISCONNECTED, except in
"exportfs" code.
The flag tells us that this dentry *might* not be connected to the
root through a chain of d_parent links. Following the d_parent
to an IS_ROOT() dentry *might* find one that is on the s_anon list
rather than s_root.
The code here need to know if it is safe to call __d_drop(), and
the correct test is "!IS_ROOT(dentry)".
If a dentry IS_ROOT(), then it might be the filesystem root, or it
might be the root of a DCACHE_DISCONNECTED tree, and so be on
the s_anon list. In these two cases it should not be __d_drop()ed.
If !IS_ROOT(), then the dentry is attached to its parent through
d_subdir, and can safely be unhashed.
