Subject: ocfs2: fix a tiny case that inode can not removed
When running dirop_fileop_racer we found a case that inode
can not removed.
2 nodes, say Node A and Node B, mount the same ocfs2 volume. Create
two dirs /race/1/ and /race/2/ in the filesystem.
Node A Node B
rm -r /race/2/
mv /race/1/ /race/2/
call ocfs2_unlink(), get
the EX mode of /race/2/
wait for B unlock /race/2/
decrease i_nlink of /race/2/ to 0,
and add inode of /race/2/ into
orphan dir, unlock /race/2/
got EX mode of /race/2/. because
/race/1/ is dir, so inc i_nlink
of /race/2/ and update into disk,
unlock /race/2/
because i_nlink of /race/2/
is not zero, this inode will
always remain in orphan dir
This patch fixes this case by test whether i_nlink of new dir is zero.
