kill_node() nullifies/checks Node->dentry to avoid double free. This complicates the next changes and this is very confusing: - we do not need to check dentry != NULL under entries_lock, kill_node() is always called under inode_lock(d_inode(root)) and we rely on this inode_lock() anyway, without this lock the MISC_FMT_OPEN_FILE cleanup could race with itself. - if kill_inode() was already called and ->dentry == NULL we should not even try to close e->interp_file. We can change bm_entry_write() to simply check !list_empty(list) before kill_node. Again, we rely on inode_lock(), in particular it saves us from the race with bm_status_write(), another caller of kill_node().

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
