Subject: xfs: return a distinct error code value for IGET_INCORE cache misses
From: "Darrick J. Wong" <darrick.wong@xxxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit ed438b476b611c67089760037139f93ea8ed41d5 ]
For an XFS_IGET_INCORE iget operation, if the inode isn't in the cache,
return ENODATA so that we don't confuse it with the pre-existing ENOENT
cases (inode is in cache, but freed).
