[PATCH 3.14 027/130] expand dentry_kill(dentry, 0) in shrink_dentry_list()

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Tue Mar 01 2016 - 18:50:40 EST


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

------------------

From: Al Viro <viro@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit ff2fde9929feb2aef45377ce56b8b12df85dda69 upstream.

Result will be massaged to saner shape in the next commits. It is
ugly, no questions - the point of that one is to be a provably
equivalent transformation (and it might be worth splitting a bit
more).
