Subject: GFS2: fix dentry leaks

From: Miklos Szeredi <miklos@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 5ca1db41ecdeb0358b968265fadb755213558a85 upstream.

We need to dput() the result of d_splice_alias(), unless it is passed to
finish_no_open().

Edited by Steven Whitehouse in order to make it apply to the current
GFS2 git tree, and taking account of a prerequisite patch which hasn't
been applied.
