Description
See Viro's email to linux-fsdevel, http://marc.info/?l=linux-fsdevel&m=135968126020360&w=2 .
We probably need to link the ceph_dentry_info to struct on the parent inode (properly refcounted) when its validity is chained to the parent's cap. This is sort of duplicating d_parent, but the current code is abusing it and racy.
