Note that libxfs still has libxfs_trans_ijoin_ref() which sets the
lock flags, but this has been removed from the kernel code. IOWs,
this is a libxfs/trans.c::xfs_trans_ijoin() bug, not something that
needs fixing in the shared kernel/user libxfs code.

Cheers,

nod. That is the correct thing to do.

Since the shared user/kernel code will no longer do a xfs_trans_ihold(),
the libxfs_iput() should be factored out out of inode_item_unlock() and
have the creator release the inode pointer when it is appropriate.

No one besides me is using this so it can go into the next release of
xfs_progs.

--Mark.

PS. I may not have been very clear, the libxfs_trans_roll() and
    inode_item_done() also cause a premature libxfs_iput().
    Let me do more testing making any changes and target this for
    xfsprogs-3.2.1.

--Mark.
