Bob Peterson 2c47c1be51 gfs2: clean up iopen glock mess in gfs2_create_inode
Before this patch, gfs2_create_inode had a use-after-free for the
iopen glock in some error paths because it did this:

	gfs2_glock_put(io_gl);
fail_gunlock2:
	if (io_gl)
		clear_bit(GLF_INODE_CREATING, &io_gl->gl_flags);

In some cases, the io_gl was used for create and only had one
reference, so the glock might be freed before the clear_bit().
This patch tries to straighten it out by only jumping to the
error paths where iopen is properly set, and moving the
gfs2_glock_put after the clear_bit.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
