From b6054793069bf08fcf220fff5fb33735d5493594 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Aneesh Kumar K.V" Date: Thu, 5 Jan 2012 10:42:17 -0600 Subject: [PATCH] fs/9p: We should not allocate a new inode when creating hardlines. Don't do new_inode_from fid in case of hardlink creation. This ensures that link count for hardlink files get updated properly. Earlier link count was not updated on removing a hardlink with cache mode enabled.
