Ok, so I think that patch is still probably the right way to go, but it's broken for a silly reason: because it's not using iget_locked() any more, it also needs to remove the now unnecessary (and actively incorrect) call to unlock_new_inode().
So remove that one line too, and maybe it could even work. Still not *tested*, though.
