Subject: reiserfs: discard prealloc in reiserfs_delete_inode
From: Jeff Mahoney <jeffm@xxxxxxxx>
With the removal of struct file from the xattr code, reiserfs_file_release()
isn't used anymore, so the prealloc isn't discarded. This causes hangs later
down the line.
This patch adds it to reiserfs_delete_inode. In most cases it will be a no-op
due to it already having been called, but will avoid hangs with xattrs.
