Subject: [PATCH] don't trigger warning when d_subdirs is not empty.

It is never empty at this point, because of the self references.
a better test is to see if any of them gets d_inode set.

This seems correct and I'll apply this but I still can't reproduce the
warning at will before the patch. How do I a get negative dentry on
the d_subdirs when d_delete always returns 1? Glauber, can you
trigger the warning at will?

Thanks.
Yes, everytime I reboot the machine.
