[Ocfs2-devel] [PATCH 04/15] ocfs2: Let inode be really deleted when ocfs2_mknod_locked() fails

[Sunil Mushran]

From: Jan Kara <jack at suse.cz>

Mainline commit b99835c1684918b9975851d71455c5c007d1715b

We forgot to set i_nlink to 0 when returning due to error from ocfs2_mknod_locked()
and thus inode was not properly released via ocfs2_delete_inode() (e.g. claimed
space was not released). Fix it.
