Hi Jeff,
I have a report of a crash in 3.18 because fl->fl_lmops is NULL in the above.
https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=912569
I assume this happens because a file_lock is found which is not IS_LEASE.
When that happens, the loop will abort, but fl will not be NULL.
As non-LEASE locks have a NULL fl_lmops, we crash.
I would be inclined to put the code back the way it was, and just move the
trace_generic_delete_lease call.
Alternately we could make it
if (fl && IS_LEASE(fl))
error = fl->fl_lmops-> .....
What do you think?
