get_inode callback of generic_fh_to_{dentry|parent}

Hi,

I'm the maintainer of pramfs. I'm currently working in the export
operation for my fs and I've got a question about the callback in the
subject. Is it right that this function return an error for a not
allocated inode? I see a comment for example in the ext2 code for the
callback like this:

  /* iget isn't really right if the inode is currently unallocated!! */

So I think it's cleaner to use ilookup() instead of iget(). Comments?

Thanks.

Marco
