NFS: Fix double d_drop in nfs_instantiate() error path
If the LOOKUP or GETATTR in nfs_instantiate fail, nfs_instantiate will do a d_drop before returning. But some callers already do a d_drop in the case of an error return. Make certain we do only one d_drop in all error paths. This issue was introduced because over time, the symlink proc API diverged slightly from the create/mkdir/mknod proc API. To prevent other coding mistakes of this type, change the symlink proc API to be more like create/mkdir/mknod and move the nfs_instantiate call into the symlink proc routines so it is used in exactly the same way for create, mkdir, mknod, and symlink. Test plan: Connectathon, all versions of NFS. Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
