2.6.15.2 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let
us know.
------------------
From: Alexander Viro <[email protected]>
Fixed the refcounting on failure exits in sys_mq_open() and
cleaned the logics up. Rules are actually pretty simple - dentry_open()
expects vfsmount and dentry to be pinned down and it either transfers
them into created struct file or drops them. Old code had been very
confused in that area - if dentry_open() had failed either in do_open()
or do_create(), we ended up dentry and mqueue_mnt dropped twice, once
by dentry_open() cleanup and then by sys_mq_open().
Fix consists of making the rules for do_create() and do_open()
same as for dentry_open() and updating the sys_mq_open() accordingly;
that actually leads to more straightforward code and less work on
normal path.
