From: Chuck Lever Date: Mon, 24 Sep 2007 15:40:06 -0400 NFS: Don't call nfs_renew_times() in nfs_dentry_iput() Negative dentries need to be reverified after an asynchronous unlink. Quoth Trond: "Unfortunately I don't think that we can avoid revalidating the resulting negative dentry since the UNLINK call is asynchronous, and so the new verifier on the directory will only be known a posteriori."
