Instead of bumping it from 0 to 1, calling retain_dentry(), then decrementing it back to 0 (with ->d_lock held all the way through), just leave refcount at 0 through all of that. It will have a visible effect for ->d_delete() - now it can be called with refcount 0 instead of 1 and it can no longer play silly buggers with dropping/regaining ->d_lock. Not that any in-tree instances tried to (it's pretty hard to get right). Any out-of-tree ones will have to adjust (assuming they need any changes). Note that we do not need to extend rcu-critical area here - we have verified that refcount is non-negative after having grabbed ->d_lock, so nobody will be able to free dentry until they get into __dentry_kill(), which won't happen until they manage to grab ->d_lock.

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.
