From 73f507171cfa407b19f254aef95cbb058c8180cf Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Aneesh Kumar K.V" Date: Tue, 16 Aug 2011 22:19:28 +0530 Subject: [PATCH] fs/9p: Always ask new inode in lookup for cache mode disabled This make sure we don't end up reusing the unlinked inode object. The ideal way is to use inode i_generation. But i_generation is not available in userspace always.
