Andreas Gruenbacher eebd2e813f gfs2: Get rid of gfs2_set_nlink
Remove gfs2_set_nlink which prevents the link count of an inode from
becoming non-zero once it has reached zero.  The next commit reduces the
amount of waiting on glocks when an inode is evicted from memory.  With
that, an inode can become reallocated before all the remote-unlink
callbacks from a previous delete are processed, which causes the link
count to change from zero to non-zero.

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

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
