3.11.10.1 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ 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.
