Hi Linus, hi Alan,
could you apply following patch into 2.4.2-ac14 and 2.4.3-pre4?
It does:
last three hunks: do not d_add() already hashed dentry.
It is fix for problem discovered by Urban
in his smbfs. Probably it is more utilized
than ncpfs...
rest: moved test for dentry->d_parent != parent before
call to d_validate(), instead of doing
it in caller after ncp_d_validate() returns.
Al Viro asked for this some time ago, but
it somewhat did not found its way into
mainstream kernel yet...
While I was on it, I changed ncp_d_validate
layout a bit to get shorter code.
Thanks,
Petr Vandrovec
