[patch 21/47] reiserfs: discard prealloc in reiserfs_delete_inode

From: Greg KH
Date: Tue Jul 22 2008 - 19:25:13 EST


2.6.25-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us
know.

------------------
From: Jeff Mahoney <jeffm@xxxxxxxx>

commit eb35c218d83ec0780d9db869310f2e333f628702 upstream

With the removal of struct file from the xattr code,
reiserfs_file_release() isn't used anymore, so the prealloc isn't
discarded. This causes hangs later down the line.

This patch adds it to reiserfs_delete_inode. In most cases it will be a
no-op due to it already having been called, but will avoid hangs with
xattrs.
