[PATCH] PATCH 5/16: NFSD: BKL removal: add BKL where needed in filehandle lookup
Protect dentry attachement from BKL The process of attaching a dentry into the dcache still needs the BKL I think. When all the other BKL changes in the VFS settle down, I will revisit this. But as it is not a very frequent operation, the BKL wont hurt. Also add a down/up of i_sem when doing a lookup(".."), as it is down for all other lookups.
