[PATCH 6/8] btrfs: fix error check of btrfs_lookup_dentry()

From: Mark Fasheh <hidden>
Date: 2011-08-18 21:56:59
Subsystem: btrfs file system, filesystems (vfs and infrastructure), the rest · Maintainers: Chris Mason, David Sterba, Alexander Viro, Christian Brauner, Linus Torvalds

From: Tsutomu Itoh <redacted>

Clean up btrfs_lookup_dentry() to never return NULL, but PTR_ERR(-ENOENT)
instead. This keeps the return value convention consistent.

Callers who pass to d_instatiate() require a trivial update.

create_snapshot() in particular looks like it can also lose a BUG_ON(!inode)
which is not really needed - there seems less harm in returning ENOENT to
userspace at that point in the stack than there is to crash the machine.

Mark: Fixed conflicts against latest tree, gave the patch a more thorough
description.
