ocfs2: roll back the reference count modification of the parent directory if an error occurs
Under some conditions, the directory cannot be deleted. The specific
scenarios are as follows: (for example, /mnt/ocfs2 is the mount point)
1. Create the /mnt/ocfs2/p_dir directory. At this time, the i_nlink
corresponding to the inode of the /mnt/ocfs2/p_dir directory is equal
to 2.
2. During the process of creating the /mnt/ocfs2/p_dir/s_dir
directory, if the call to the inc_nlink function in ocfs2_mknod
succeeds, the functions such as ocfs2_init_acl,
ocfs2_init_security_set, and ocfs2_dentry_attach_lock fail. At this
time, the i_nlink corresponding to the inode of the /mnt/ocfs2/p_dir
directory is equal to 3, but /mnt/ocfs2/p_dir/s_dir is not added to the
/mnt/ocfs2/p_dir directory entry.
3. Delete the /mnt/ocfs2/p_dir directory (rm -rf /mnt/ocfs2/p_dir).
At this time, it is found that the i_nlink corresponding to the inode
corresponding to the /mnt/ocfs2/p_dir directory is equal to 3.
Therefore, the /mnt/ocfs2/p_dir directory cannot be deleted.
