Is this fix correct? Eeek... I'd rather not play these games with directories and devices nodes as well. Rationale for the original patch simply doesn't apply for those. IOW, I think it would be much saner if we did the following: make ..._test() refuse to merge inodes with ->i_ino == 1, take inode setup back to get_cramfs_inode() and make ->drop_inode() evict ones with ->i_ino == 1 immediately. Comments?
