The patch titled r/o bind mounts: clean up OCFS2 nlink handling has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename is r-o-bind-mount-clean-up-ocfs2-nlink-handling.patch This patch was dropped because git-ocfs2 changes broke it. New patch, please. ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: r/o bind mounts: clean up OCFS2 nlink handling From: Dave Hansen <haveblue@xxxxxxxxxx> OCFS2 does some operations on i_nlink, then reverts them if some of its operations fail to complete. This does not fit in well with the drop_nlink() logic where we expect i_nlink to stay at zero once it gets there. So, delay all of the nlink operations until we're sure that the operations have completed. Also, introduce a small helper to check whether an inode has proper "unlinkable" i_nlink counts no matter whether it is a directory or regular inode. This patch is broken out from the others because it does contain some logical changes.
