NFS: Sillyrename: in the case of a race, check aliases are really positive
In nfs_do_call_unlink() we check that we haven't raced, and that lookup() hasn't created an aliased dentry to our sillydeleted dentry. If somebody has deleted the file on the server and the lookup() resulted in a negative dentry, then ignore... Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
