For 3.12 stable. Upstream ref: http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/fs/gfs2/inode.c?id=ea0341e071527d5cec350917b01ab901af09d758 >From ea0341e071527d5cec350917b01ab901af09d758 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 21 Nov 2013 18:47:57 +0000 Subject: GFS2: Fix ref count bug relating to atomic_open In the case that atomic_open calls finish_no_open() with the dentry that was supplied to gfs2_atomic_open() an extra reference count is required. This patch fixes that issue preventing a bug trap triggering at umount time.
