From: Mark Fasheh OCFS2 does some operations on i_nlink, then reverts them if some of its operations fail to complete. This does not fit in well with the drop_nlink() logic where we expect i_nlink to stay at zero once it gets there. So, delay all of the nlink operations until we're sure that the operations have completed. Also, introduce a small helper to check whether an inode has proper "unlinkable" i_nlink counts no matter whether it is a directory or regular inode. This patch is broken out from the others because it does contain some logical changes.
