Subject[PATCH 3.19.y-ckt 058/156] eCryptfs: Invalidate dcache entries when lower i_nlink is zero
Date
3.19.8-ckt8 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Tyler Hicks <tyhicks@canonical.com>

commit 5556e7e6d30e8e9b5ee51b0e5edd526ee80e5e36 upstream.

Consider eCryptfs dcache entries to be stale when the corresponding
lower inode's i_nlink count is zero. This solves a problem caused by the
lower inode being directly modified, without going through the eCryptfs
mount, leaving stale eCryptfs dentries cached and the eCryptfs inode's
i_nlink count not being cleared.

[ luis: backported to 3.16:
- use dentry->d_inode instead of d_inode(dentry)
- adjusted context ]
