Cc: linux-nfs@vger.kernel.org Message-ID: <20140714012820.12562.14018.stgit@notabene.brown> In-Reply-To: <20140714011630.12562.1940.stgit@notabene.brown> References: <20140714011630.12562.1940.stgit@notabene.brown> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8" Sender: linux-nfs-owner@vger.kernel.org List-ID: nfs4_lookup_revalidate only uses 'parent' to get 'dir', and only uses 'dir' if 'inode == NULL'. So we don't need to find out what 'parent' or 'dir' is until we know that 'inode' is NULL. By moving 'dget_parent' inside the 'if', we can reduce the number of call sites for 'dput(parent)'.
