From: Pekka Enberg <[email protected]>
The revoke operation cannibalizes the revoked struct inode and removes it from
the inode cache thus forcing subsequent callers to look up the real inode.
Therefore we must make sure that while the revoke operation is in progress
(e.g. flushing dirty pages to disk) no one takes a new reference to the inode
and starts I/O on it.
