[Ocfs2-devel] [PATCH] vfs: Set special lockdep map for dirs only if not set by fs

Some filesystems need to set lockdep map for i_mutex differently for
different directories. For example OCFS2 has system directories (for
orphan inode tracking and for gathering all system files like journal
or quota files into a single place) which have different locking
locking rules than standard directories. For a filesystem setting
lockdep map is naturaly done when the inode is read but we have to
modify unlock_new_inode() not to overwrite the lockdep map the filesystem
has set.
