v4: handle r_locked_dir correctly in __choose_mds
rename rdirino to rdiri
v3: use parent inode information more widely when we have it
v2: use r_locked_dir in __choose_mds if it's available
handle NULL d_inode_rcu(parent) properly
In several places, the kcephfs client accesses dentry->d_parent without
holding appropriate locking. This is not safe, as you can race with
renames that can morph the tree such that is changes and dentries found
previously can end up freed. This patchset fixes these places to access
the parent(s) safely, mostly using the rcu_read_lock().
Note that I'm not aware of any specific bug reports in this area --
these were just discovered by inspection (mostly by Zheng). This passes
xfstests at least up to test generic/095, where we hit an unrelated
softlockup in the splice write code (http://tracker.ceph.com/issues/18130).
