SubjectRe: [Jfs-discussion] [CHECKER] Return Error code gets treated as dir_table index, resulting losses of other dir entries (JFS2.4, kernel 2.4.19)

This patch makes the situation better. Instead of returning -EPERM, it
returns zero. It also cleans up behind itself to leave the index table
consistent. At the time add_index is called, completely aborting the
operation is difficult, and jfs does attempt to deal with an invalid
index. It will attempt to add a valid index table entry on subsequent
lookups.
