commit 2819f23ac12ce93ff79ca7a54597df9a4a1f6331 upstream.
The update to removing the eventfs_file changed the way the events top level directory was handled. Instead of returning a dentry, it now returns the eventfs_inode. In this changed, the removing of the events top level directory is not much different than removing any of the other directories. Because of this, the removal just called eventfs_remove_dir() instead of eventfs_remove_events_dir().
Although eventfs_remove_dir() does the clean up, it misses out on the dget() of the ei->dentry done in eventfs_create_events_dir(). It makes more sense to match eventfs_create_events_dir() with a specific function eventfs_remove_events_dir() and this specific function can then perform the dput() to the dentry that had the dget() when it was created.
