Trond Myklebust 796318ae38 NFS: Avoid changing nlink when file removes and attribute updates race
[ Upstream commit bd4928ec799b31c492eb63f9f4a0c1e0bb4bb3f7 ]

If a file removal races with another operation that updates its
attributes, then skip the change to nlink, and just mark the attributes
as being stale.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

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.
