------------------------------------------------------ From: Joseph Qi joseph.qi@linux.alibaba.com Subject: ocfs2: clear dinode links count in case of error Date: Mon, 17 Oct 2022 21:02:27 +0800
In ocfs2_mknod(), if error occurs after dinode successfully allocated, ocfs2 i_links_count will not be 0.
So even though we clear inode i_nlink before iput in error handling, it still won't wipe inode since we'll refresh inode from dinode during inode lock. So just like clear inode i_nlink, we clear ocfs2 i_links_count as well. Also do the same change for ocfs2_symlink().
