Currently we have the following code in fs/nfsd/vfs.c::nfsd_rename() :
...
host_err = nfsd_break_lease(odentry->d_inode);
if (host_err)
goto out_drop_write;
if (ndentry->d_inode) {
host_err = nfsd_break_lease(ndentry->d_inode);
if (host_err)
goto out_drop_write;
}
if (host_err)
goto out_drop_write;
...
'host_err' is guaranteed to be 0 by the time we test 'ndentry->d_inode'.
If 'host_err' becomes != 0 inside the 'if' statement, then we goto
'out_drop_write'. So, after the 'if' statement there is no way that
'host_err' can be anything but 0, so the test afterwards is just dead
code.
This patch removes the dead code.
