Subject: [PATCH] NFS: Fix Oopsable/unnecessary i_count manipulations in nfs_wait_on_inode()
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.14-rc5~30

[PATCH] NFS: Fix Oopsable/unnecessary i_count manipulations in nfs_wait_on_inode()

Oopsable since nfs_wait_on_inode() can get called as part of iput_final().

Unnecessary since the caller had better be damned sure that the inode won't
disappear from underneath it anyway.
