Subject[PATCH] ceph: check i_nlink while converting a file handle to dentry
Date
Converting a file handle to a dentry can be done call after the inode
unlink. This means that __fh_to_dentry() requires an extra check to
verify the number of links is not 0.

The issue can be easily reproduced using xfstest generic/426, which does
something like:

name_to_handle_at(&fh)
echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
unlink()
open_by_handle_at(&fh)

The call to open_by_handle_at() should fail, as the file doesn't exist
anymore.
